After securing Ederson Silva from Atalanta, United is not slowing down in the summer transfer window. They aim to make at least five signings ahead of the World Cup, focusing primarily on strengthening their midfield. Reports indicate that Fernandes, a standout performer for West Ham during their relegation season, is next on their radar.
Sources suggest that United has already initiated discussions with West Ham, aiming to secure the 21-year-old for around £45 million. Despite West Ham's insistence on an £80 million price tag, Stone believes a resolution can be reached swiftly.
Fernandes, who didn’t qualify for the World Cup, remains eager for a move, and his departure seems inevitable. The ongoing negotiations highlight Manchester United's aggressive strategy as they look to enhance their squad significantly. Expect this deal to unfold rapidly, potentially making Fernandes the next major addition to the Red Devils' lineup.
