Bayern Munich have opened talks with the agent of Manchester United star Bruno Fernandes ahead of a potential summer transfer, according to reports from Portugal.

New Bayern boss Vincent Kompany is eager to add to his squad with the German giants aiming to strengthen after a disappointing season.

Bayern finished a rare campaign without a trophy, despite Harry Kane's impressive goal scoring record since his arrival. 

Kompany's appointment was confirmed this week, with the former Burnley manager succeeding Thomas Tuchel despite attempts from Bayern to convince the German to remain at the Allianz Arena.

Portuguese outlet O Jogo report that Bayern could make Fernandes the first marquee signing under Kompany.

The report claims Bayern have approached Fernandes' agent Miguel Pinho over a potentially sensational move for the United skipper. 

Although Bayern are reportedly targeting Fernandes, they may have to act quickly, with Barcelona also interested in signing him as per the reports.  

Fernandes' future at United is uncertain, especially given that it isn't clear whether manager Erik ten Hag will remain in charge.

The Man United captain stressed last month that he wants to remain at the club, writing in The Players' Tribune.

Fernandes, however, stressed that he needs to have his ambitions matched. 

He wrote: 'I love to step out at Old Trafford more than anything in the world. I don’t want to leave. This has always been my ultimate dream.

'I just want my expectations to fit with the expectations of the club. If you go talk to any fan, they will tell you the same thing. We want to compete for the league. We want to be playing Champions League football. We want to be in cup finals. That is the standard. That is what I want. That is what you all deserve.

'I just want to keep fighting. I want to be here. My family wants to be here.'

The 29-year-old featured as United beat rivals Manchester City 2-1 in the FA Cup final. It was the second trophy he has won with the club following on from the Carabao Cup last year.

The result earned Man United qualification to next season's Europa League having looked likely to miss out due to their eighth placed finish in the Premier League.

Since signing for United in January 2020, Fernandes has made 233 appearances, while he has scored 79 goals and has provided 66 assists.

Barcelona, now managed by Hansi Flick, are also reportedly interested in Fernandes as they look to strengthen their midfield. 

If United were to lose Fernandes then it would be a significant blow, especially given that they are looking to rebuild.

Although they won the FA Cup, Man United endured a difficult campaign after a disappointing eighth place in the Premier League and a group stage exit in the Champions League. 

United's budget for the summer transfer window is only just over £35million in cash, but the club's co-owners INEOS are looking to raise more funds by selling players.
