The reports indicate that West Ham has demands connected to any negotiations, though the specific terms and final fee are not fully detailed across the summaries provided.
Several outlets also describe United as leading or in a strong position in the race to sign Fernandes, with interest from other clubs referenced in the wider coverage.
