In spite of recent speculations tying him to a move to the Premier League's biggest clubs, 21-year-old Fernandez claims he is not distracted.

After River Plate's 2-0 win over Fortaleza in the Copa Libertadores, United dispatched scouts to watch him for the fourth time this week. Real Madrid has also been rumoured to be interested.

After the game, reporters approached the Argentine midfielder and inquired about the rumors.

With a low-key demeanor, " According to Fernandez, who was reported by TyC Sports as saying "I strive to work day by day to keep improving and expanding,"

There is a lot of aid from my teammates and the coaching staff, so I'm grateful for that." I'm able to handle it. I appreciate the kind words, and I've read a good deal of what they've said, so I'm overjoyed. "I'm going to keep going down this road."

Because Fernandez had a reputed £20 million release clause in his contract, he might make an appeal to Manchester United. Compared to West Ham's asking price for Declan Rice, another Manchester United midfield target this summer, that is a big discount.

What do you think about Manchester United's chances of signing Fernandez in the upcoming transfer window?
