Bruno Fernandes to watch Man Utd vs Liverpool at Anfield ahead of January transfer

BRUNO FERNANDES will reportedly be at Anfield to cheer on Manchester United against Liverpool on Sunday.

SunSport understands that the midfielder is set to complete his 60million move from Sporting Lisbon by the end of the week.

Bruno Fernandes is expected to sign after Sporting’s clash against Benfica

According to Portuguese outlet A Bola, he will kick off his United career by watching his team-mates in action against the league leaders.

Fernandes will not feature for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side, but the transfer is expected to be completed by then.

The 25-year-old is set to bid farewell to Sporting fans during Friday’s Lisbon derby with Benfica.

Sporting have failed to keep of their star man despite tying him down with a new deal just six weeks ago.

He has cemented his spot in the first-team this season after scoring 15 goals and making 13 assists in 25 matches.

And the Primeira Liga side trolled United as they shared a photograph of him training with the words “Job done”.

But Fernandes sent United fans into meltdown when he posted a cryptic tweet ahead of his move to the Premier League.

The 19-cap Portugal international is set to watch United in action as they look to make it three wins on the bounce.

But Solskjaer’s side – who are fifth in the table after 22 games – are 27 points adrift of Jurgen Klopp’s men.

And the Red Devils boss is sweating over the fitness of top scorer Marcus Rashford after he picked up a knock in the win over Wolves.
