Bruno Miguel Borges Fernandes (born 8 September 1994) is a Portuguese footballer who plays for Primeira Liga club Sporting CP and the Portugal national team as a midfielder. Fernandes started his career at Serie B side Novara Calcio and soon featured for Udinese and Sampdoria in Serie A.
In 2017, he signed with Sporting CP where he established himself as one of the best players in the Primeira Liga. He was named the LPFP Primeira Liga Player of the Year in both 2017–18 and 2018–19. In the latter season, he also helped Sporting win the Taça de Portugal. A senior international since 2017, Fernandes represented Portugal at the 2016 Summer Olympics and 2018 FIFA World Cup.
Manchester United have been linked with a whole host of big money signings this summer and are said to be close to making Jadon Sancho their most expensive signing of all time.
United are also pursuing Jack Grealish and, should they secure both signings, they would need to fork out around £200m, making it the most expensive transfer window since Jose Mourinho spent around £160m on Victor Lindelof, Romelu Lukaku and Nemanja Matic in the summer of 2017.
