Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool are reportedly keen on signing the Sporting Lisbon star.

According to a report from Portiugsue media outlet A Bola, Bruno Fernandes’s agent Miguel Pinho is due to land in England today to speak with representatives of Tottenham and Liverpool.

The 24-year-old established himself as one of Europe’s finest attacking midfielders last season, racking up an incredible 32 goals and 18 assists in 53 appearances in all competitions.

Fernandes would be an outstanding addition for either Spurs or the Reds, but which club will be prepared to go all out for him this summer?

That remains to be seen.

Portuguese publication A Bola claims that Miguel Pinho, the Sporting ace’s representative, is due to land in England today in order to speak with Tottenham and Liverpool officials.

It is claimed that neither of the two Premier League clubs are wiling to pay more that €55 million (£50 million) for Fernandes.

And whether that will be enough for either Tottenham or Liverpool to prise him away from Sporting remains to be seen, although the fee mentioned does seem to be a fair price.

And if Mauricio Pochettino or Jurgen Klopp manages to snare the Portugal international this summer, he will surely prove to be worth every penny.
