Mateus Fernandes, Manchester United, West Ham United
1 June 2026
Manchester United have reportedly accelerated talks for West Ham midfielder Mateus Fernandes as they plan a midfield rebuild after returning to the Champions League. Arsenal, Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain, Atletico Madrid, Inter, Juventus and Napoli are also monitoring the 21-year-old.
West Ham’s relegation has increased the chances of a sale, even though Fernandes is under contract until 2030 and has no release clause. United see him as a long-term option beside Bruno Fernandes and are trying to move early.
