Odds slashed on Neymar to Man United; Everton favs for Giroud
Published:
Neymar could be the subject of a new world record transfer fee this summer, according to the latest odds.
Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho is reportedly willing to activate the Brazilian’s £174m release clause.
And we’ve reacted to the news by slashing the odds on a deal taking place during this transfer window from 12/1 to just 4/1.
Meanwhile, Arsenal striker Olivier Giroud could be the subject of a £20m mega move to Merseyside, with Everton now shock 7/4 favourites to land the Frenchman this summer.
West Ham have long been linked with a move for the forward, but they’ve since drifted to 7/2 as interest from Goodison Park has grown.
Alex Apati of Ladbrokes said: “There’s a long way to go, but the latest Neymar rumours have sparked our traders into action.
“And such a huge cut in odds over the weekend suggests the Red Devils might just smash the world record transfer fee for the second year in a row.”
“As for Arsenal, it looks as though a deal for Lacazette could signal the end of Giroud’s time in North London, with the Toffees seemingly ready to pounce.”
