Real persist with Bruno Fernandes
Bruno Fernandes' name is continuing to be talked about at the Bernabeu. According to 'Correio da Manha', the Portuguese midfielder is still one of Real Madrid's option to strengthen the midfield.
The Portuguese paper reports that Real Madrid are closely following the Bruno Fernandes situation, who could be signed for 70 million euros to strengthen Zinedine Zidane's midfield.
After ruling out Paul Pogba because it was impossible, the Portuguese midfielder has become one of the great alternatives for Real Madrid together with Donny Van de Beek and Christian Eriksen.
The 24 goals in 42 matches last season are the reason Sporting asked for 70 million euros for Bruno Fernandes, after Man United's refusal.
At first, the Portuguese's name was touted as a possible substitute for Paul Pogba, if he finally ends up going to the Bernabeu. However, the Frenchman stayed at Old Trafford and the Portuguese stayed in Lisbon.
Nevertheless, it is worth remembering that rumours over Bruno Fernandes moving to Real Madrid were already revealed by 'AS'. They said that Jorge Mendes was trying to get the footballer to move to the Bernabeu.
