Barcelona have reportedly initiated contact with representatives of Manchester United playmaker Bruno Fernandes.
According to reports, the Catalan side are exploring the possibility of a summer transfer for the Portuguese.
This move comes as the Barcelona hopes to operate under La Liga’s 1:1 financial rule, which would lift their current spending restrictions.
Football Espana reported that Sporting director Deco, a compatriot of Fernandes, is keen on bringing the star to Spain.
Meanwhile, Bayern Munich have also expressed interest, indicating that Fernandes could be a hot commodity in the upcoming transfer window.
Despite a relatively subdued 2023/24 campaign, Fernandes remains one of Premier League’s top attacking midfielders.
While Fernandes’ talent is undeniable, questions arise about whether he fits Barcelona’s immediate needs, especially given his age of 29.
