Man Utd set to let another young star leave with Burnley among suitors to sign Alvaro Fernandez

• Fernandez spent 22-23 season with Preston
• Has featured for the Reds in pre-season
• 20 y/o under contract until June 2024

WHAT HAPPENED? The 20-year-old has already been linked with a move back to Spain this summer, but according to The Mirror, fellow Premier League club Burnley and La Liga outfit Granada are leading the race to land the United youngster.

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Having made quite the mark at Deepdale during his loan spell with Preston North End last season in the Championship, Fernandez's suitors have since come forth this summer.

AND WHAT'S MORE: United boss Ten Hag is keen on keeping Fernandez around but feels allowing the youngster to experience Premier League football this season on loan can only further improve his development as a player.
