Liverpool and Manchester United target Bruno Fernandes looks like he will snub the current European Champions to join Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s Red Devils.
According to Italian outlet Corriere Dello Sport, United have agreed a £63m fee with Sporting Lisbon to bring the playmaker to Old Trafford, and Fernandes will fly into England to have a medical as soon as possible.
The Portuguese ace had a brilliant campaign last season. The long-shot specialist scored 23 goals and contributed 13 assists in all competitions, whilst playing in midfield.
It was reported by Correio de Manha last month that Red’s boss Jurgen Klopp was “looking for an opportunity” to sign Fernandes.
Undoubtedly, if the Portugal international was to join Liverpool, he will add a new breath of fresh air into that Liverpool midfield. The current midfield lacks goals and assists, therefore Fernandes will be perfect to change that.
Klopp was reportedly impressed by Fernandes in Liverpool’s pre-season friendly against Sporting on Thursday, in which the midfielder scored one and assisted the second in a 2-2 draw.
