The summer transfer window promises to be a busy one for PSG as the Parisian club seeks to rejuvenate Luis Enrique’s squad following their second consecutive Champions League triumph. Several leads have already been activated on the transfer market, with the name of Mateus Fernandes emerging in recent weeks. The 21-year-old attacking midfielder is expected to leave West Ham, who have been relegated to the EFL Championship. However, a fierce battle is already underway for his signature.

Manchester United and Tottenham push for Mateus Fernandes

The race for Mateus Fernandes is intensifying behind the scenes. Tottenham and Manchester United are both working on the deal—Tottenham also has its sights set on Sandro Tonali, while Manchester United has already secured Ederson and now wants Fernandes. The two Premier League giants are in active discussions with West Ham. Tottenham is pushing to close the deal, but Manchester United remains firmly in the hunt. This is a major transfer battle that will likely go down to the wire.

West Ham set their price for Mateus Fernandes

It remains to be seen which suitor will ultimately land Mateus Fernandes. West Ham has set an initial asking price of €98 million, though the Hammers are hoping to receive an even higher offer. PSG, who have adopted a policy of not overpaying for players either in wages or transfer fees, could potentially walk away from this deal if West Ham holds firm on its valuation. The situation continues to evolve and will be closely monitored.
