Fernandes confirms United stay amid Saudi speculation
Gulf Today
|June 04, 2025
Bruno Fernandes has reportedly rejected a huge offer to leave Manchester United for the Saudi Pro League, opting to be part of Ruben Amorim’s rebuild at Old Trafford.
Reports said Al Hilal were willing to pay United up to $135 million for the 30-year-old Portugal international but had not made an official approach.
United endured their worst finish of the Premier League era, finishing 15th. They also lost the Europa League final to Tottenham.
United captain Fernandes was one of the few players to emerge with credit from a disastrous season, scoring 19 goals and making 19 assists across all competitions.
