The Sporting captain was heavily linked with a move to Old Trafford last summer as the club looked to strengthen their midfield. It is rumored that he is set to reunite with Amorim at United after their time together in Lisbon.<\/p>\n<p>Names such as Carlos Baleva, Adam Wharton and Elliott Anderson have also been floated, but speculation persists that United may reconsider their interest in Hjormand next year. According to the Manchester Evening News, the Red Devils decided not to prioritize midfield reinforcements last summer, but are in no hurry to speed up their plans by taking action in January.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>However, he could face competition from Manchester City if he were to sign him, with Portuguese outlet Record suggesting that City could also consider a potential move.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this, Fernandes has already given his nod to the idea that Yurmand could be brought to Old Trafford in the near future.<\/p>\n<p>In an interview with Portuguese broadcaster Canal 11, he was asked to name three players from the country&#8217;s top team who could play in the Premier League.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have a lot of midfielders,\u201d Fernandes said. \u201cOne of them is Fredrik Orsnes because of his intelligence and the dynamic he brings to the game.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He is a player who adapts to the Premier League, regardless of his physicality. He may have a slim build, but I believe that the intelligent player will always win here.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&#8220;Obviously, Morten Yulmand is the perfect player at the moment,&#8221; Fernandes said when asked if he would like to have Yulmand at United: &#8220;He is a player who will contribute to the team.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;He&#8217;s intelligent and aggressive, which you need in the Premier League. But it&#8217;s only when you&#8217;re here that you realize whether you&#8217;re really cut out for the Premier League, because it&#8217;s so different compared to other leagues.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In my opinion, Yurmand would adapt well here as well, but I think he would also fit in the Italian league.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, recent statements regarding Fernandes&#8217; future have sparked further speculation. He suggested the club did not have the guts to ask him to leave last summer and said he would assess his future after the World Cup.<\/p>\n<p>United are reported to have no intention of parting ways with Fernandes before the summer transfer window, when investment will be made to strengthen their midfield.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2147625\/Bruno-Fernandes-Man-Utd-transfer\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Manager Bruno Fernandes hinted that Manchester United target Morten Ulmand would be the perfect addition to his squad, praising the midfielder&#8217;s individual skills.
