Fiorentina sporting director Daniele Prade claimed that Bruno Fernandes is heading to Real Madrid for $76.8 million.

"Raphinha must be off the market because Bruno Fernandes is off to [Real] Madrid for 70 million euros," said Prade at a press conference. 

Fiorentina had been pursuing Sporting Lisbon striker Raphinha, though Prade said that the move was unlikely since the team would have to also replace Fernandes.
