Jose Mourinho says Neymar fee is 'not expensive'

  • SOUNDBITE: (English) Jose Mourinho, Manchester United manager:

    (on Neymar)

    "When we paid that amount for Paul (Pogba) I told them that he was not expensive. Expensive are the ones that get into a certain level without a certain quality. With Neymar I think it's the same, I don't think he's expensive. But what happens now is that I think you're going to have more players for £100 million, more players for £80 million and I think that's a problem. Neymar is one of the best players in the world and commercially he's very strong. So I don't think the problem is Neymar, I think the problem is the consequences after Neymar."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Jose Mourinho, Manchester United manager:

    (on win against Sampdoria)

    "It handed in a good way. As I was expecting Sampdoria was perfect. Talented team, consistent, good tactically, competitive, so it was good. So I'm really happy with our pre-season. Two days off now for the boys after a long time since we started. Next week serious stuff, super cup and first premiere league match.
