Blow for Man Utd as Spurs look to sabotage deal for top target

Blow for Man Utd as Spurs look to sabotage deal for top target

According to what has been reported by Portuguese newspaper O Jogo today, Tottenham Hotspur are looking to sabotage their Premier League rivals Manchester United's deal for Sporting Lisbon midfielder Bruno Fernandes.

Fernandes has been heavily linked with a move away from his native Portugal this summer, with United and Spurs the teams who have been linked most closely. 

After United have seemingly missed out on a deal for Lazio midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, the club have turned their attention to getting the deal for Fernandes over the line. However, O Jogo's reports suggest that Tottenham have sent a representative out to Portugal in an attempt to try and get a deal completed.
