Inter are among several Italian clubs, including Juventus and Napoli, that are monitoring West Ham United's 21-year-old Portuguese midfielder Mateus Fernandes. A summer transfer is considered increasingly likely due to West Ham's disappointing season and financial pressures, with the club valuing the player at €50–60 million, a figure that is expected to decrease. The competition for Fernandes is significant, with Manchester United reportedly emerging as the strongest contenders. Sources informed CaughtOffside that United's transfer committee has accelerated talks with the player's representatives. Arsenal, Paris Saint-Germain, Atletico Madrid, Chelsea, and Aston Villa are also monitoring the situation. Fernandes, who has one cap for Portugal, joined West Ham in August 2025 and has a contract until 2030.
