Bruno Fernandes

Manchester United are ready to make their first official approach to Sporting Lisbon for Bruno Fernandes, according to A Bola.

The Portugal international has featured in a number of pre-season fixtures for the Primeira Liga outfit, who appear in no rush to agree to the sale of their world-class asset.

Manchester United have reportedly “explored” the possibility of signing Sporting Lisbon midfielder Bruno Fernandes.

The Red Devils are likely to focus their attention on signing new centre-backs during the summer transfer window, but it appears that the Premier League giants may also be keen to bolster further up the pitch.
