Manchester United bid £145 million ($211 million) for Neymar in the summer of 2015, according to the Barcelona star’s father.

Neymar Sr. told Spanish radio station COPE that United was willing to meet COPE. “He has still two years left on his contract, but you can all be calm as my son is so happy here.”

Manchester United has been known for its attempts to sign famous players for large amounts of money under the direction of Ed Woodward, its executive vice chairman.

It was beaten to the signing of Bale by Madrid in the summer of 2014, but is thought to still desire bringing the Wales winger to Old Trafford.
