Bruno Fernandes is set to sign a new five-year contract at Manchester United as the club seek to reward him for his performances since joining from Sporting Lisbon.
The playmaker had three years remaining on his existing deal and the option of a further year but United have been holding talks with his representatives for a while and they have been increasingly positive of late, with both sides encouraged by the developments.
There will be no announcement of a new deal while Fernandes is away on international duty but official confirmation of the contract extension could come in the next few weeks.
