Barcelona make bid for Man Utd target Bruno Fernandes

Barcelona have reportedly opened talks with Sporting Lisbon over a deal to sign Manchester United key target Bruno Fernandes.

According to Sky Sports News, Barca have proposed signing him this summer window until 2025 but will loan him to Valencia until the end of the 2020-21 campaign.




The Catalans are currently in talks with Valencia over a deal to sign Rodrigo and reports in Spain claim they are hoping this new proposal can help get the deal done.

United and Sporting remain apart in their valuations for Bruno Fernandes despite protracted talks over a deal to England this month.




On Thursday the two teams were £10m apart in their valuation with the Red devils willing to pay £42m having initially agreed a £55m deal in principle.

Fernandes played full 90 minutes for Sporting Lisbon on Monday in a 1-0 home victory against Maritimo.

Speaking after a 1-0 win of Maritimo on Monday, Sporting boss Jorge Silas said: “I can’t confirm it [if Fernandes made his last appearance against Maritimo], I would like him to stay.

“Right now I don’t know if he will stay or not, but I would like to count on him at least until the end of the season.



“Bruno Fernandes is a different player, he sees things that no one sees. Being further back and seeing these movements, the defence begins to decline.

“Any team that had Bruno Fernandes in Portugal would suffer if they lost him. If so we will have to look for solutions.”
