Man United ‘unconcerned’ about midfielder’s future

Manchester United will be looking upwards after a third win in five Premier League games saw them move up to sixth in the top flight table. 

Striker Rasmus Hojlund put United ahead against West Ham United on Sunday, before Alejandro Garnacho netted twice after the break to earn Erik ten Hag’s side a 3-0 victory at Old Trafford.

The win moved the Red Devils about the Hammers, and the Dutchman will now have his sights set on the battle for a place in the top four.

Midfielder Bruno Fernandes has been instrumental in helping United navigate a difficult season so far, and it appears that the club are unconcerned about the player’s future despite rumours linking him with a move away from Manchester.

As per Football Insider, those in charge of United are not concerned about the future of Bruno Fernandes, despite interest from clubs in the Saudi Arabian Pro League.

The report claims that the Portuguese midfielder has attracted significant interest fro Pro League sides, especially Al-Hilal who are preparing a ‘huge offer’ for the 29-year-old during the upcoming summer transfer window.

Despite this, Fernandes is believed to be happy at Old Trafford and the club’s bosses are therefore unconcerned that he may look to depart.

Fernandes joined United from Portuguese club Sporting CP in January 2020 and has an instant impact for the club, scoring eight goals and providing seven assists in his first 14 Premier League matches.

The Portugal international has now played 216 times for the Red Devils across all competitions, scoring 71 goals and registering 61 assists.

Discussions over Fernandes’ future are set to take place at the end of the season, with the player’s current contract set to run until the end of the 2025/26 campaign.

Man United also have the option to extend that deal by a further 12 months.
