American manufacturer Chevrolet, Manchester United’s primary kit sponsor, will reportedly provide some financial support if the club bid for Neymar in the summer.

According to Spanish publication Don Balon, Chevrolet want United to recruit Neymar in an effort to bolster their own market reputation in Europe and Asia and they are said to be willing to contribute towards the transfer fee.

The Brazilian international set a world record transfer fee of €222 million last summer when he moved from Barcelona to PSG.

Manchester United bought Alexis Sanchez last month in a swap deal with Henrik Mhikitaryan, who was sent south to London towards the Emirates.

The acquisition of Sanchez brings United’s crop of forwards to seven.
