The next Bruno Fernandes?! Man Utd lining up another Sporting CP star to replace club captain amid £100m Al-Hilal links

<p><a href="https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/manchester-united-bruno-fernandes-goncalves-35316172" target="_blank"><em>The Mirror</em></a><em> </em>report that manager Ruben Amorim is keen to reunite with Pedro Goncalves, who has starred for the Portuguese outfit since signing in 2020. A fee of £70 million ($94m) could be enough to tempt Sporting to sell.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Amorim turned Goncalves into a prolific goal-scoring midfielder during their time together at Sporting. He struck 18 times in the 2022-23 season and bagged another 14 in 2023-24, while his familiarity with Amorim's 3-4-3 system would be a huge tick for the Red Devils.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

While United are loath to lose their captain, that fee could allow them to reinvest in several areas of the squad.</p>

They look set to miss out on striker Liam Delap, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/chelsea-win-race-liam-delap-blues-closing-in-move-ipswich-star-striker-gives-green-light-stamford-bridge-switch/blt40f36434c877a64b" target="_blank">who is joining Chelsea</a>.</p>
