At present, Bruno Fernandes is the only natural no.10 on Manchester United’s books.
Jadon Sancho can operate there as can Christian Eriksen, though the latter is now used as a deep-lying playmaker under Erik ten Hag.
So, adding someone to the squad who can rotate with Bruno Fernandes does make sense.
The player Manchester United are seemingly in for is Nabil Fekir.
According to Spanish outlet Fichajes, Real Betis are open to selling Nabil Fekir in the summer transfer window because they know that it will be difficult to keep hold of the Frenchman due to the interest of several important European clubs. It is added that Betis have set their price €30m.
The report goes on to name Manchester United, Newcastle and Leicester as interested parties, adding that: “Manchester United want to bring in an attacking midfielder who can rotate with names like Bruno Fernandes. Fekir is a profile that Erik Ten Hag has always liked a lot, who sees it as a proper name to start competing for the Premier League title.”
