Bruno Fernandes Faces Urgent Deadline on Man Utd Future

Manchester United’s captain Bruno Fernandes finds himself at the heart of intense transfer speculation.

According to The Mirror, the Portuguese midfielder has only a week to make a choice about leaving Old Trafford for the lucrative and warm climate of Saudi Arabia.

Al-Hilal, a leading team in the Saudi Pro League, has made an astonishing £100 million bid.

If he agrees, Fernandes could earn approximately £700,000 weekly — tax-free. That kind of deal can make even the most devoted captain reconsider.

Despite a challenging season for United, Fernandes shone brightly, earning the club’s Player of the Year title for the fourth time, tying with Cristiano Ronaldo’s achievement.

However, he may now have new financial milestones to aim for.

Ruben Amorim’s perspective on Bruno Fernandes’ future

Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim is optimistic about Fernandes remaining at the club. After finishing the club’s post-season tour in Asia, he stated, “I’m not sure… In our conversations, he expresses a desire to stay with Manchester United, but uncertainty exists.”

At this point, clarity is lacking. Reports indicate that Fernandes’ agent, Miguel Pinho, has been seen in Riyadh, negotiating with Al-Hilal.

The Saudi club is keen to finalize this transfer quickly as they prepare for the Club World Cup, wanting Fernandes available before their June matchup against Real Madrid.

Meanwhile, United are under financial pressure — having missed out on Champions League qualification, they face a significant £100 million loss in potential revenue, which could sway them toward selling their star player.
