Manchester United are keen to secure Bruno Fernandes to a new deal at Old Trafford following interest in the summer from Galatasaray as well as clubs in Europe and Saudi Arabia. Negotiations are taking extra time as discussions continue over clauses and potential bonuses. Fernandes has been a key player for Manchester United, and the club wants to retain him. The talks are ongoing, but it's clear that United are eager to secure his future at the club.
Additionally, Barcelona are preparing to offload left back Alejandro Balde, with manager Hansi Flick planning to use both Xavi Espart and João Cancelo ahead of the 22-year-old. Atletico Madrid are also challenging Tottenham Hotspur and Nottingham Forest in the race for Athletico Paranaense defender Arthur Dias, who has reportedly attracted interest from multiple clubs across Europe following his call-up by manager Carlo Ancelotti to the Brazil senior national team.
