Manchester United have employed super agent Pini Zahavi to take charge of talks with Barcelona for Neymar.
El Mundo Deportivo says the Israeli agent is a close friend of Jorge Mendes and helped broker the deal that took Jose Mourinho to Chelsea for the first time in 2004.
The 72-year-old shot to fame in England after he became Rio Ferdinand's agent in the 90s.
The Daily Star says Zahavi helped to sell Jaap Stam to Lazio and played a part in Juan Sebastian Veron's transfer to United.
But it is not just players Zahavi deals in, he was a key part of the deal that brought Roman Abramovich to Chelsea - a move that changed the face of English football.
Zahavi has a huge experience in the football business and looks to be the ideal candidate to get involved in what would be a world-record transfer worth around £150m.
