Bruno Fernandes faces a crucial decision regarding his future at Manchester United, as Al-Hilal from Saudi Arabia intensifies efforts to finalize a transfer.
Reports indicate that the club has set a deadline for the Portuguese player to respond to a staggering proposal — one that is financially beneficial for both him and United.
According to sources (supported by Daily Mail), the 30-year-old midfielder is weighing a three-year contract that could amount to nearly £200 million, inclusive of bonuses.
Al-Hilal is prepared to offer United around £100 million should Fernandes give his approval. However, he has a mere 72 hours to reply once the official proposal is presented.
Manchester United, still reeling from missing out on Champions League qualifications and a lucrative £100 million reward, finds itself in a precarious financial situation.
Following the Europa League final defeat, Fernandes remarked, “If the club believes it’s time for a change and wants to cash in, then that’s the reality.”
Major Exits Ahead for Manchester United?
Bruno isn’t the only player that’s receiving attention. The club is reportedly willing to entertain offers for nearly all its star players this summer.
Rasmus Hojlund, purchased for £72 million just a year ago, might be sold for a mere £25-30 million. Marcus Rashford could leave for £40 million, while Antony might go for around a quarter of the £86 million he cost initially.
Additionally, Jadon Sancho could make a return if Chelsea activates a specific clause.
Fans of United may want to prepare themselves for a revamped squad, as Ruben Amorim is expected to implement significant changes. Although the club claims Fernandes is not available for transfer, financial pressures may ultimately dictate their decisions.
With a new chapter on the horizon for Old Trafford, no player is secure — including the captain.
