Manchester United eye West Ham's Mateus Fernandes, price high

Manchester United have been linked with a move for Mateus Fernandes. The Portugal star is a West Ham United player and the deal is expected to command a high fee ahead of the summer transfer window. Fernandes’s reputation as a Portugal international has driven up his market value. Consequently, clubs view his price as eye‑watering. West Ham United have made clear they will not sell cheaply. Their stance indicates a substantial asking price. The summer transfer window opens on 1 July, giving clubs time to negotiate. Manchester United will need to meet West Ham’s valuation to secure Fernandes.
