West Ham United is not yet facing certain relegation, but they find themselves in the relegation zone and dealing with financial issues. This situation may lead to the sale of players like Jarrod Bowen, Crysencio Summerville, and Matheus Fernandes.
Manchester United sees potential in these players, especially the younger Summerville and Fernandes. Fernandes might be the top choice as they seek midfield options.
As reported by Alex Crook from talkSPORT, Fernandes is looking to leave West Ham if they are relegated, and Manchester United is among the clubs interested in him. They have already scouted him.
At just 21 years old, Fernandes has emerged as a standout player this season, alongside Elliot Anderson from another struggling team, whom Manchester United also wants to sign.
Manchester United aims to bring in at least two midfielders this summer, and Fernandes could complement a more experienced player like Bruno Guimaraes or Sandro Tonali.
This season, Fernandes averages about four tackles and interceptions per game, one key pass per match, and draws 1.4 fouls per game. He has also been involved in six goals for West Ham.
