Manchester United Leads the Race to Sign Fernandez, Real Madrid Makes Initial Contact

Press reports have revealed that Manchester United has placed Portuguese player Matheus Fernandes on its priority list during the current transfer window, as part of a plan to strengthen the midfield for the new season.

According to sources, Manchester United's management is aware of the player's personal terms and does not anticipate any obstacles in this regard if an agreement is reached with West Ham United regarding the deal.

Reports indicated that the English club is preparing to make an official offer, noting that the Red Devils are leading the race to sign the 21-year-old player.

Matheus Fernandes is considered one of the standout players in the English Premier League this season, while West Ham is asking for around 80 million pounds to let him go.

It is reported that Real Madrid has made initial inquiries about the player, as coach José Mourinho places the Portuguese star at the top of his priorities to strengthen the Royal team's midfield this summer.
