Liverpool are reportedly in the running to sign Sporting Lisbon midfielder Bruno Fernandes in this summer's transfer window.
Fernandes has been in impressive form for Sporting this season, scoring 21 times and registering 11 assists in 38 appearances for the Portuguese outfit in all competitions.
The 24-year-old was widely expected to leave Sporting last summer, but the exits of William Carvalho, Gelson Martins and Rui Patricio meant that the club could keep hold of Fernandes.
According to Correio de Manha, though, Sporting will be forced to sell their captain this summer due to their continued financial issues, which has attracted the attention of Liverpool.
However, the report has claimed that the Green and Whites will have to lower their current asking price, which stands at £86.9m.
Fernandes, who has also been linked with AC Milan, has a contract with his Portuguese club until the end of the 2022-23 campaign.
