In a definitive update on his future, Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes is reportedly fully focused on the new season at Old Trafford and is not currently in any talks with clubs from Saudi Arabia.
This new information directly refutes the recent wave of reports that had strongly linked him with a sensational move to Al Nassr to reunite with his former manager, Jorge Jesus. Sources now clarify that there are “no talks taking place” between the player’s camp and the Saudi giants at this stage.
Furthermore, the update reveals a crucial new detail about his summer transfer plans. It has now emerged that Fernandes had already rejected a move to the Saudi Pro League earlier in the window, having said “no” to a significant proposal from another top Saudi club, Al Hilal, back in June.
The midfielder’s rejection of two of the biggest clubs in Saudi Arabia sends a clear and unambiguous message about his intentions. He remains committed to competing at the highest level of European football and leading the new project under manager Ruben Amorim at Manchester United.
This news will come as a huge relief to the club’s fanbase. Fernandes remains the team’s captain and its most important creative player. His leadership and on-field quality are seen as absolutely vital for the team as they look to bounce back from a difficult previous season.
While the transfer window can always be unpredictable, the message from the Bruno Fernandes camp is firm. Having already turned down one lucrative move to Saudi Arabia, he is not entertaining another. His focus is entirely on preparing for the new campaign and leading Manchester United into a new era.
