United move closer to signing Bruno Fernandes

His move to Old Trafford from Sporting has been talked about for a while. It looks as though all the steps are in place to facilitate his move to the Premier League.

At 24 years of age, eveything suggests that it will be one of the most important transfers from the Portuguese league to the big leagues, along with Eder Militao, who has signed for Real Madrid. Or Joao Felix, whom many clubs are interested in.

Atletico Madrid is another team who have showed a strong interest in the midfielder over the last few months, but it looks like they are too late and will miss out on one of their targets.

All of this said, the player had to abandon his focus on the Portuguese squad after some injury worries.
