Medical could happen today after Man Utd agree his price tag.

Manchester United have finally reached an

agreement with Sporting CP over the price

to secure the signing of Bruno Fernandes.

In Portugal, Record have reported that the

Red Devils have agreed a fee worth 80

million euros and beaten off competition

from Spanish champions Barcelona to lure

the Seleccao star.

In Britain, Sky Sports report that the Old

Trafford club are now close to sealing the

signing of the Primeira Liga attacking

midfielder after agreeing a fee worth

£68million. It is mentioned that the

player’s medical with Man Utd could

happen today.

Similarly, as per The Guardian , the 25-year-

old star is set to join Man Utd for an initial

price of £46.5m and further £21.2m in

add-ons. They reported that Fernandes is

set to agree personal terms with the club.

Let’s hope that an official announcement

is made soon to finally get his capture

done. It has been an annoying winter

transfer window but the frustration would

have reached its peak if Barcelona would

have beaten us to the player’s signature.

We have to face Man City tonight (Carabao Cup) and Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League on Saturday. So, even if we

complete the deal in time before the weekend, it is likely that the Portuguese international would not be ready to compete against

Wolves.

In such a scenario, we can expect Fernandes to make his debut for Man Utd when they face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on 18th February.
