Panic at Manchester United as Bruno Fernandes Makes Shock Decision

Reports have emerged that midfielder Bruno Fernandes is "open to leaving Manchester United" following interest from several clubs.

In early June, Fernandes seriously considered an offer from Saudi club Al Hilal, which was prepared to offer him £810,000 per week over three years.

Al Hilal was also ready to pay around €115 million to United and was confident the club would accept such a bid.

Fernandes's agent, Miguel Pinho, even traveled to Saudi Arabia for negotiations with the club's officials, but a few days later, the Portuguese international rejected the transfer.

"It would have been easy to go there. I know the Portuguese players there very well, but I want to play at the highest level and fight for titles. I can still do that, and I still want to. I have a great passion for football."

In addition to confirming talks with Al Hilal's president, Fahad bin Nafel, Fernandes also recalled a conversation with United coach Ruben Amorim.

Despite his comments, new reports from the UK's Daily Mail claim that Fernandes is very much open to a new project. The move would supposedly happen at the end of the season, with Fernandes expected to continue his career in Saudi Arabia.

It is unlikely that Fernandes will leave Manchester this summer, but the situation could certainly change in the coming days. Al-Ittihad officials are reportedly preparing a "take it or leave it" offer for both Bruno Fernandes and Manchester United, which they will submit before the Saudi transfer window closes on September 10.

Al-Ittihad's offer is rumoured to completely "overshadow" the one Fernandes received from Al Hilal.
