Manchester United move for Sporting Lisbon midfielder Bruno Fernandes on Jeopardy?
Manchester United’s move for Bruno Fernandes is said to be ‘at risk’ as they remain in talks with Sporting Lisbon over a fee for the midfielder.
According to journalist Rui Pedro Braz, United won’t go above paying £42m up front for Fernandes, while Sporting demand at least £55m for their captain.
The £13million disparity between the two clubs could scupper the Portugal international’s potential transfer.
Braz told Portuguese television channel TVI 24 that Sporting are insisting on a guaranteed fee of £55m plus bonuses – something United are not prepared to do.
