According to talkSPORT journalist Ben Jacobs, United and Tottenham re both in ‘active talks’ to sign Fernandes.

While playing in the Champions League is said to be a priority for Fernandes, he is yet to decide on which club he would prefer to join.

West Ham are also holding out for their hefty £85 million asking price bolstered by a recent £90 million cash injection and interest from multiple suitors.
