English Premier League champions Manchester United has been reported to be once again tracking Santos whizkid Neymar.
Local British newspapers have reported that United boss Sir Alex Ferguson is sending scouts to the Under 17 World Cup in Nigeria at the end of this month to watch striker Neymar, 17, hailed as the new Pele.
It is believed that Manchester United have had him watched in Brazil but are stepping up their interest in a bid to beat off competition from the likes of AC Milan, Real Madrid and Manchester City.
Santos have slapped a £12million price tag on their star and are insisting no deal can be completed until the summer.
Manchester United, however, are looking to agree a fee now to secure his move to Old Trafford.
