Manchester United are on the verge of agreeing a big money deal to finally sign long-term target Bruno Fernandes, according to Portuguese newspaper A Bola. English media Mail claims Red Devils could finally seal a deal TODAY.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been chasing the attacking midfielder since last summer, but Sporting Lisbon have so far played hardball over the fee for their star man.
However, a new report claims that United have now made a breakthrough in their negotiations after making a new offer worth just over £55million.
A Bola claim that the Red Devils will pay close to £47m up-front for Fernandes, with an extra £8.5m in potential add-ons depending on his success at Old Trafford.
Sporting had hoped to secure a deal worth £60m for the Portugal international, but now appear willing to meet United in the middle this month.
