Bruno Fernandes to Tottenham was nearly a reality before Man United took advantage of the situation a few months later.
The Portuguese star has been an interesting addition to the Premier League since his near £60million switch from Sporting to Old Trafford. In his first season, the 28-year-old stormed onto the scene and became the heart of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's outfit with 20 goal contributions added in his first 22 games as a Red Devil.
Since then, his progression has arguably stalled slightly as Premier League defenders have now adjusted to his game, such to a point whereby he is not a definite starter under new manager Erik ten Hag. No player is guaranteed a spot under the Dutchman's reign as the former Ajax boss looks to shake up the playing squad.
