Manchester United Beaten in Race to Sign £85m Midfielder by Rival Premier League Club: Reports
- Tottenham have agreed to a club-record $112m deal with West Ham to sign midfielder Mateus Fernandes, beating Manchester United to the 21-year-old.
- Manchester United decided against matching the bid because club bosses did not feel Fernandes was fully committed to moving to Old Trafford.
- The fee smashes Tottenham's previous record of $86m paid for Dominic Solanke in 2024; Fernandes joined West Ham from Southampton last summer for $50m with a 15% clause for Southampton on any future move.
- Former defender Rio Ferdinand believes Manchester United are "holding the money back" for Madrid midfielder Aurelien Tchouameni, predicting the club will not miss the opportunity if he becomes available.
- Reports this month claim Madrid could be open to selling the 26-year-old Tchouameni, who is currently with France's squad for the World Cup this summer.
