Bruno Fernandes is reportedly on the verge of signing a mammoth new contract to stay at Old Trafford. According to The Sun, the midfielder is set to put pen to paper on a five-year deal worth more than £250,000-a-week. Fernandes had attracted interest from Real Madrid and Barcelona, but the arrival of good friend Ronaldo is believed to have contributed to his decision to remain with Manchester United.

Lautaro Martinez is said to be closing in on a new five-year deal with Inter Milan. The Daily Mail, via Gazzetta dello Sport, says the forward will sign an extension by the end of the current season, despite heavy interest from Arsenal and Tottenham.
The Daily Express reports Liverpool are chasing RB Salzburg midfielder Karim Adeyemi. The Reds are supposedly eyeing the 19-year-old as a potential stop-gap for when Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane depart for the Africa Cup of Nations in January.
