Manchester United reportedly fail with their latest bid for Sporting Lisbon midfielder Bruno Fernandes.

Sporting Lisbon have reportedly rejected Manchester United's latest offer for Bruno Fernandes.

United are just one of a number of teams who have been linked with the midfielder after the playmaker contributed 28 goals in all competitions last season.

However, United are said to hold a stronger interest than the likes of Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur, which has seemingly led to a formal approach being made for the 24-year-old.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, a bid of £35m has been made for the Portugal international, although Sporting gave little consideration to the offer.

The report adds that Fernandes is valued at above £60m, which may rule out United at this time due to the big-money addition of Aaron Wan-Bissaka.

United could potentially look to cash in on Paul Pogba in order to complete the transfer of Fernandes later in the summer window.
