Man Utd LIVE transfer news: United battle Gunners for Joao Felix signature and overtake Liverpool in Fernandez’s £105m race

Good morning Man United fans

According to journalist Bruno Andrade, Manchester United have overtaken Liverpool in the race for Argentina’s World Cup hero Enzo Fernandez.

The 21-year-old received the Young Player of the Tournament award for his outstanding performance in Qatar.

And his performances on the biggest stage have piqued the interest of Jurgen Klopp’s men.

But it is now reported that Erik ten Hag’s side are leading the way to sign the Benfica man.

Andrade tweeted on Friday evening: “There are already ongoing discussions between all parties involved.

“Red Devils are even prepared to break the 120 million euro clause and avoid any competition.”

Man Utd boss Erik ten Hag is excited as his side prepare to continue their campaign against Nottingham Forest this weekend.

Ahead of the clash, he said: “The competition is tough but I think it counts for any seven or eight clubs fighting for the top four.

“For those who follow the Premier League it’s great because it’s exciting and you have to fight for everyone to get those points.

“What I look at is the process and how we’re doing, we have to get the results and then we also have to make the right progress and then we have a good chance of finishing in the top four.”
