Mateus Fernandes: Why United are West Ham star’s most likely destination
Mateus Fernandes: Why United are West Ham star’s most likely destination Manchester United’s turnaround in form under Michael Carrick has put the club in a strong position to attract sought-after players. It has been previously reported that Elliot Anderson favours a move to Old Trafford over Manchester City. However, the Red Devils are not expected to pay a fee in excess of £100m to get a deal over the line.
Mateus Fernandes has emerged as an equally exciting alternative who is not going to cost as much due to West Ham United’s need to raise cash. The asking price for him will reportedly be closer to £60m. Manchester United face competition from Arsenal for Mateus Fernandes Mateus Fernandes has been West Ham’s most consistent performer, earning plaudits for his ability to retrieve possession and his attacking approach with the ball at his feet.
Fernandes ‘ tenacity and technical ability have even led to comparisons with Paris Saint-Germain’s Vitinha. Needless to say, United are not the only top club among the list of his suitors. Recently, The Times claimed Arsenal are keen on signing the Portuguese talent.
