City will offer to pay the Brazialian's compensation fee and
pay better wages if he comes to the Etihad - with Real Madrid also
interested
Manchester City are preparing a late £50million bid in an effort to gazump Barcelona to the signing of Brazilian sensation Neymar, according to the Daily Mail.
The Catalan club are believed to have a pre-contract with the Santos forward that will see him move to Europe either this summer or after the 2014 World Cup in his homeland - and Neymar would have have to pay a massive compensation sum if he breaks it.Real Madrid are also monitoring the situation with both clubs making it clear that they would cover compensation costs and offer the 21-year-old better personal terms if he moves to them.
The Blues director of football Txiki Begiristain, who was at Barcelona as sporting director when the club began scouting Neymar, visited Brazil earlier this year to enquire about the player's availability.
Despite Pele warning the youngster off the English game, Neymar is seen as a potential replacement for Carlos Tevez who has one year remaining on his £200,000-a-week contract at the Etihad.
Despite failing to impress in a recent friendly between England and Brazil at Wembley, Neymar is regarded as the hottest young property in world football and has been outstanding at Pele's former club.Meanwhile, City are poised to break the British transfer record with a £52million raid for Radamel Falcao,
