"Ultimate Premier League midfielder" increasingly targeted by Man Utd as transfer opportunity emerges
"Manchester United are reportedly stepping up their interest in West Ham United midfielder Mateus Fernandes ahead of the summer. The talented young Portugal international has shone for the Hammers, having previously also caught the eye during his time at former club Southampton."
"The report explains that the Red Devils are looking for two new additions in that area of the pitch, and that they're stepping up their interest in both West Ham's Fernandes and Atalanta's Ederson."
"West Ham lost 1-0 to Arsenal at the weekend as relegation now looks more and more likely with just two games left. The Hammers are in 18th place, two points behind Tottenham, so there's still some hope they could get out of the bottom three, but it's clearly going to be difficult."
"Mateus Fernandes is on people's radar because every week he plays his heart out, he is by far the best player on the football pitch from a Saints perspective, Tessem told the BBC. He is becoming an ultimate Premier League midfielder and clubs are not going to let that go. He plays like a Premier League player. He passes like a Premier League"
Manchester United are reportedly pursuing two midfield additions for the summer, with Mateus Fernandes and Atalanta’s Ederson identified as targets. Fernandes, a 21-year-old Portugal international, has impressed for West Ham and previously drew attention during his time at Southampton. West Ham’s relegation threat has intensified transfer interest, with the club sitting 18th and two points behind Tottenham with only two games remaining. Fernandes is viewed as too strong for the Championship, having left Southampton after their relegation. Jo Tessem previously said Fernandes was clearly a Premier League player, praising his performances, passing, and overall suitability for top-level midfield roles.
