Santos reiterate interest in signing Manchester United midfielder Pereira

Santos president Jose Carlos Peres has reiterated his interest in Andreas Pereira after Yeferson Soteldo expressed his desire to join Manchester United.

Pereira is contracted to United until June 2023 and featured regularly for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer prior to the coronavirus pandemic leading to the suspension of football in the United Kingdom and across the globe. Only Harry Maguire and Fred have made more appearances for the Red Devils this season than Pereira's 37.

The 24-year-old is a Santos supporter and said this week a move to the Paulista giants would leave him in tears.
