Portuguese outlet Record claimed that Los Blancos were planning to sign the midfielder.
However, Fabrizio Romano has dismissed all these claims and given his opinion on the matter.
He claims that Fernandes’ links to a move to Madrid is not something worth paying much attention to.
Los Blancos are not interested in a move for the midfielder and won’t make a move for him in January.
Madrid are likely to sign a new midfielder next summer, but are eager to sign a young player like Jude Bellingham or Enzo Fernandez to improve their long-term options.
