Manchester City transfer target Bruno Fernandes has admitted that he prefers Liverpool.
Fernandes, who has been heavily linked with a move to Manchester City this summer, says that he likes Liverpool a lot more due to their style of play.
The Portuguese international says that he is more of a fan of Liverpool, because they play intense football.
Speaking to Record, via The Mirror, Fernandes said this:
I like Liverpool a lot more [than Man City]. It’s a more direct [style of play], more offensive, maybe less organised, but more intense football.
City, without the ball, has the intensity of the eleven, and can in a moment of pressure put the [opposing] team in a corner and end up stealing the ball.
In Liverpool they are more individual players, especially in the midfield, usually playing three very aggressive players and recovering the ball.
Although Liverpool have not been linked with a move for Fernandes, this will come as a blow to Manchester City in their pursuit of the attacking midfielder.
Fernandes has caught the eye at Sporting Lisbon in Portugal this season, with an impressive 20 goals and 13 assists in the league for the club.
The 24-year-old joined Sporting from Sampdoria in 2016 for a fee in the region of €8.5m.
