According to reports from BeInSport (h/t The Mirror (transfer live blog; 13:36)), Tottenham Hotspur are looking to beat Manchester United in the race to sign Bruno Fernandes.

The same publication reported earlier today that Manchester United are close to signing the 25-year-old attacking midfielder in the January transfer window.
