English: Manchester United Football Club confirmed that the Saudi Investment Fund is negotiating with its Portuguese player, Bruno Fernandes, in order to convince him to come to the "Roshen" League next season.
A responsible source within Manchester United told the Saudi newspaper, Al-Riyadhiyah, that the Saudi negotiating team is seeking Fernandez's approval to complete the deal during the summer market.
The source acknowledged the accuracy of the news circulating about the existence of strong negotiations by the Investment Fund to transfer Fernandez to the Saudi League, but he did not reveal the club that wants to include the player.
Recent press reports indicated that there are advanced negotiations between one of the clubs in the Saudi Professional Football League "Roshen" and Bruno Fernandes at the present time.
The source also indicated that there is great fear within the English club about the step of Fernandez's departure, especially since the offer presented is very large and cannot be refused, and at the same time there is a desire for him to continue as the team's captain.
Regarding the position of the Dutchman, Erik Ten Hag, the technical director of Manchester United, he said that before renewing his contract until 2026, he requested that Fernandez continue, stressing that nothing is guaranteed due to the strong offer presented to the club and the player.
Bruno Fernandes' contract with Manchester United extends until the summer of 2026, and his name has recently been linked with Saudi club Al-Nassr to play alongside his Portuguese compatriot Cristiano Ronaldo.
