Bruno Fernandes puts Manchester United on alert after transfer declaration

In-demand midfielder Bruno Fernandes had discussed his future amid reported interest from Manchester United.

His fine performances for Sporting Lisbon, with 29 goals and 17 assists, have brought his future into the spotlight with United, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur all linked with moves.

Fernandes' agent is expected to jet into England for talks with the interested parties for the £62m-rated man.

He played 81 minutes for Portugal on Sunday as they claimed the UEFA Nations League with a 1-0 victory over the Netherlands.

Speaking after the game, the 24-year-old admitted he would speak to his club if an offer he couldn't refuse arrived.

“I know nothing, I will take the next few days to understand what is true,” Fernandes told Sport Mediaset.

“We know that newspapers sometimes have to make a show to move the market and sell. I’m calm, I’m at a big club. I don’t need to move, I’m not trying to leave.

“If the opportunity comes to go to a team that you can’t refuse, I’ll talk to Sporting."

Inter Milan have also been linked with a move and Fernandes added on their reported interest: “I had a great time in Italy, I still watch the Italian championship: both Inter and the others, I follow them all.

“I do not know if their interest is true, but Inter are a great team, they have history. They have a great coach who has made history with Juventus, he has done well with their national team, but the other teams will strengthen as well.”
