Midfield makes sense as a priority for them, and one report suggests significant progress is being made on a deal to sign Fernandes from Sporting Lisbon.

The Portugal international is set to be the subject of a formal bid from United worth around £65million, with talks going well as the player is now expected in Manchester imminently.

Alongside that, Man Utd could also do a smart deal on the cheap for one of the most exciting young players in the country in the form of Birmingham City wonderkid Bellingham.
