Sporting CP midfielder Bruno Fernandes has been asked directly about joining Manchester United.

Fernandes is expected to sign for United in the next 24 hours.

He was stopped by a reporter from Portuguese television station SIC on Tuesday, who asked him two direct questions about his future.

The first question was whether a move to the Premier League is his preference, to which he responded: "It always was."

The second was whether Manchester United is his desired destination, to which he replied slightly more cautiously, saying: "Anything really."
