Manchester United have reportedly permitted Saudi Pro League clubs to open talks to sign Bruno Fernandes in the summer transfer window.
According to a report by TEAMtalk, Bruno Fernandes is the subject of interest from Saudi Pro League clubs. The big-spending giants want to take him to the Middle East in the summer transfer window. And Manchester United have surprisingly permitted them to open talks to sign the 29-year-old talismanic playmaker.
Bruno Fernandes and his Manchester United career so far
Bruno Fernandes has been Manchester United’s talisman since arriving from Sporting CP in January 2020. The Red Devils chased him for over 12 months before securing his services four and a half years ago. He hit the ground running at Old Trafford and has not looked back since then.
The 29-year-old is a mainstay in the middle of the park for his club and country, going from strength to strength with every passing season. Fernandes has turned out 233 times thus far for the Red Devils while chipping in with 79 goals and 66 assists. However, his Manchester United future has been uncertain heading into the summer transfer window.
The Portuguese international is Manchester United’s best player. However, the Red Devils are reportedly open to cashing in on him in the summer transfer window if they receive sizeable offers. The latest update has provided further clarification on the situation as Saudi Pro League clubs look to secure his services.
Saudi Pro League move on the horizon?
Saudi Pro League clubs have left no stone unturned to bring high-profile players to the Middle East. While many well-known stars were already plying their trade in the league, Cristiano Ronaldo’s arrival a couple of years ago opened the floodgates for the Saudi Pro League. Since then, legends like Neymar have moved to Saudi Arabia. Bruno Fernandes might be the next to move there.
Recent reports have pointed to Al-Nassr submitting a lucrative contract to Fernandes. The latest update has revealed that Manchester United have permitted Saudi Pro League clubs to open talks to sign the 29-year-old talismanic playmaker.
Despite the claims from TEAMtalk, seeing Fernandes move to the Saudi Pro League or any other club will be surprising. However, it will be interesting to see if the Portuguese international leaves Manchester United in the summer transfer window.
