United could miss out on Bruno Fernandes this summer
Manchester United's summer business is far from over, even though things have been a little quiet since the arrival of Aaron Wan-Bissaka. However, Solskjaer has himself stated that United are working on a couple of transfer, and there is a requirement of another midfielder in the squad. Sporting Lisbon's Bruno Fernandes had apparently been shortlisted by the Norwegian and there were rumours floating that United were preparing a bid for the Portuguese midfielder.

However, according to latest reports, it is highly unlikely that Bruno Fernandes will join United this summer. Most of the speculations regarding his move has apparently been created in Portugal. Manchester United do have a genuine interest in him, but the Portuguese is not a priority for the Red Devils.
Fernandes scored a goal and made the headlines with a fine display in the 2-2 draw against Liverpool in pre-season. He even caught Jurgen Klopp's attention, who revealed that he would not be pleased if the Portuguese joined United.

Bruno Fernandes to Manchester United? He's obviously a really good player.
They have already a few really good players so that would make them stronger and that's not nice.
