Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim has opened up about captain Bruno Fernandes’ future at the club. Amorim’s comments came amid widespread speculation about the Portuguese’s potential exit from the club this summer.
Bruno Fernandes has been one of Manchester United’s most significant players since joining them in January 2020. The 30-year-old renewed his contract until 2027 in August last year with an option to extend for another year. However, reports about Fernandes considering leaving Old Trafford have been rife since last season. Multiple outlets suggested that the Portugal international has gained interest from the Saudi Pro League in recent months.
In a recent interview, Manchester United coach Ruben Amorim addressed rumors about Bruno Fernandes’ future at the club. He reiterated that Fernandes is an integral part of the team and said (via Manchester Evening News):
Amorim continued:
Manchester United ended the 2024-25 season with disappointment, as they went trophyless and did not qualify for any stage of European football. However, Bruno Fernandes had a better season individually, contributing 19 goals and 20 assists in 57 outings across competitions. He ended the season as the Red Devils’ top scorer.
Manchester United lost 1-0 to Tottenham Hotspur in the Europa League final, marking a disastrous end to their season. In the post-match press conference after the loss, Bruno Fernandes made his stance clear about his future. He said that he’s open to a departure if the club sells him.
The Portuguese superstar added:
After Manchester United’s loss in the Europa League, their budget for the summer transfer window will be constrained amid well-known financial troubles. However, the Red Devils will have to make major decisions about revamping the squad, as they need multiple reinforcements, especially in their attack.
