Bruno Fernandes Confirms Man Utd Stay Amid Al-Nassr’s €65M Bid

**Bruno Fernandes has dismissed summer transfer rumors from Manchester United**, despite Saudi giants Al-Nassr offering €65 million and a reunion with Cristiano Ronaldo. The 31-year-old midfielder, a club captain and Portugal’s World Cup talisman, told sources he’s committed to Old Trafford for now-even as his €65 million release clause looms.

Fernandes’ decision comes after a turbulent past. Last year, he claimed United’s hierarchy wanted him gone, but manager **Rubén Amorim**-now Portugal’s national team coach-helped convince him to stay. Current boss **Michael Carrick** has also made his retention a priority, with the club relaxed about his contract: one year left plus a one-year extension option.

The Saudi club’s €65 million bid isn’t new. Last summer, Al-Hilal and Al-Ittihad also pursued Fernandes, but he rejected them for family and football reasons. Now, Al-Nassr’s push centers on reuniting him with Ronaldo, his strike partner in Portugal’s 5-0 World Cup win over Uzbekistan this cycle. Fernandes assisted Ronaldo’s second goal in that match, proving his on-field chemistry remains elite.

Since joining from Sporting CP in January 2020, Fernandes has delivered **107 goals and 108 assists in 327 appearances**-numbers that place him among United’s most productive modern midfielders. His form hasn’t dipped with age: last season, he was instrumental in key victories, including a **clean sheet in a Premier League win over Liverpool**.

With no immediate transfer move on the horizon, Fernandes will focus on United’s title push and Portugal’s World Cup preparations. His stay secures continuity for a club still rebuilding, while Saudi clubs may yet revisit their bids-especially if Carrick’s side stumbles. For now, Fernandes’ future is at Old Trafford, where his influence is undeniable.
