Man Utd to land £60m-rated Portuguese star from Sporting
Manchester United are set to sign £60million Sporting Lisbon sensation Bruno Fernandes by the end of the week.
The goalscoring midfielder, 25, is expected to agree a five-year contract worth around £100,000 a week.
Officials from both clubs met in London to thrash out a deal and the Sporting representatives have flown back to finalise the move.
Portugal star Fernandes signed a new deal at Sporting just SIX WEEKS ago — but sources felt he was still likely to leave.
He should provide United with a much-needed creative spark, as well as chipping in with plenty of goals himself.

He has scored 15 times and provided 13 assists for Sporting in 25 matches so far this season.
Last term he clocked up an incredible 32 goals and 18 assists in 53 games.
United remain keen to offload Marcos Rojo as part of the deal but may have to cough up part of his £80,000-a-week wages for Sporting to take him.
