Manchester United are ahead of Tottenham in the race for Mateusz Fernandes - Romano

Manchester United remain the main contenders to sign West Ham midfielder Mateusz Fernandes. This was reported by insider Fabrizio Romano. According to a source, the Mancunians have been working on a potential transfer for the 21-year-old Portuguese for several weeks and have made the most progress of any interested club. Moreover, the representatives of Manchester United have already started discussing the personal terms of the contract with the football player. In recent days, Tottenham has actively joined the fight for Fernandes. The London club have also been in contact with the player's agent and are exploring the possibility of a transfer, but their interest is at an early stage at the moment. West Ham have no intention of letting go of one of their key players cheaply. After the relegation of the team to the Championship, the Hammers value Fernandes at around 80 million pounds, considering this amount to be a certain concession on the part of the club. We will remind, earlier it was reported that Tottenham have the Portuguese in Manchester United, but at the moment it is the team from Old Trafford that has the best chances for a successful conclusion of the deal.
