West Ham rejects Manchester United's approach for Mateus Fernandes
Summary

Manchester United is seeking to finalize a deal for Mateus Fernandes, but West Ham has blocked the approach due to a hefty asking price. The Hammers initially set Fernandes' value at £84 million, which United found unrealistic after their relegation. United reportedly offered around £60 million but West Ham remains firm on their £80 million request. With Fernandes expressing a preference for Old Trafford, negotiations continue as both clubs work towards a resolution. The situation may extend longer, with West Ham needing funds after losing their Premier League status.
