Man United Transfer News: Manchester United target Bruno Fernandes holds talk with Premier league rivals

Man United Transfer News: Bruno Fernanades holds transfer talks with Manchester United’s Premier league rivals Tottenham Hotspurs.

Manchester United are enormously pursuing Portuguese sensation Bruno Fernandes and ready to meet Sporting Lisbon’s demands to hire the player.

However, according to a report by the Telegraph, it suggests that Bruno Fernandes is also holding talks with other clubs amidst Manchester United pursuit, as his agent reportedly met with representatives of Tottenham.

Manchester United are in immediate need to bring midfield reinforcements in the squad, as the underwhelming resources in this area, and speculations of Paul Pogba leaving the Old Trafford is propelling Ole Solskjaer to find adequate replacements.

On the other hand, Bruno Fernandes had a phenomenal season with Sporting Lisbon in the league this season. Additionally, he played a crucial role in Portugal’s triumph of UEFA Nations league, which aroused several interests.

However, Manchester United have kept Fernandes on their radar since a long time, and are preparing a bid near to his valuation of £64 million.

Whereas, Tottenham are not as keen to bring the player to the club as compared to the Red Devils, simply because of his astronomical prize. Although, the Lilywhites can push their efforts, if Christian Eriksen pushes his transfer away from the club.

Bruno Fernandes on the other side, wishes to make a move out of Portugal, as the 24-year-old feels that he requires new challenges at this stage of his career.

Hence, it is upon Manchester United to seal the deal by completing the move before they are trailed behind by any other club, considering the Red Devils are the forerunners in this pursuit as of now.

He was also the Captain at Sporting hence he comes with leadership pedigree. Bruno Fernandes is also a set piece treat dangerous with Free kicks something tottenham lacked since Eriksens 2017 season. He has way more experience than lo Celso #Thfc #Spurs #Coys
