Friday's Manchester United transfer talk news roundup: Bruno Fernandes, Vedat Muriqi

Sports Mole rounds up the latest transfer talk for Manchester United on Friday, January 31.

The January transfer window is now open as Manchester United eye possible reinforcements to boost their top-four chase following an inconsistent first half of the season.

After a summer which saw them let Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez leave without bringing in a direct replacement, an attacker is thought to be the club's priority this month.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the latest news on possible comings and goings from Old Trafford.
