Manchester United are reportedly considering making a move for Braga attacker Roger Fernandes this summer.
The 19-year-old has been a key player for Braga during the 2024-25 campaign, making 44 appearances in all competitions, scoring five goals and registering five assists in the process.
Fernandes has a contract with his Portuguese club until June 2028, but it is understood that his deal includes a release clause of €40m (£33m), while an offer of €30m (£25m) this summer would allegedly be accepted.
According to O Jogo, Man United are huge admirers of the teenager, and the Red Devils could make a move this summer.
Fernandes came through the youth system at Braga, and he has represented his current side on 80 occasions, scoring 11 goals and registering 12 assists, with the attacker also having experience of the Champions League and the Europa League.
Man United allegedly view the teenager as a bargain signing considering his potential, but they could face competition from a number of other clubs during this summer's transfer window.
Man United 'eyeing move for Braga's Fernandes'
Fernandes is capable of featuring down the left, but the bulk of his football this season has come as a right-sided attacker.
The Red Devils are currently operating in a 3-4-3 system under head coach Ruben Amorim, and it is believed that Fernandes could potentially be used as a right-sided wing-back if he made the switch to Old Trafford.
Man United had seemingly earmarked Geovany Quenda for that role, but the talented teenager has agreed to join Chelsea from Sporting Lisbon in a blow to the 20-time English champions.
Diogo Dalot is currently the first-choice right-sided wing-back at Old Trafford, but he continues to struggle to influence matches from an attacking point of view, with an upgrade seemingly wanted in that position.
Fernandes fits the brief in terms of Man United's new transfer policy, as the club look to sign outstanding young talent with a view to developing them into first-team stars in the years to come.
Brighton & Hove Albion, Fulham and Chelsea are also said to be among the clubs keen on the teenager. body check tags ::
