Manchester United targets Mateus Fernandes from West Ham ahead of transfer window

Manchester United is preparing to submit a bid for West Ham midfielder Mateus Fernandes. Although the summer transfer window does not open for another 12 days, United has already agreed to sign Ederson from Atalanta for around £39 million. The team aims to secure Fernandes, who is under a long-term contract but is believed to be open to a move to Old Trafford amid interest from other clubs. West Ham reportedly hopes to sell Fernandes for around £80 million, but financial issues from relegation could influence negotiations.
