Bruno Fernandes Rejects £200 Million Al Hilal Offer, Commits to Manchester United

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has rejected a lucrative offer from Saudi Pro League club Al Hilal, opting to continue playing top-level football in Europe despite the massive proposal reportedly worth £200 million over three years. Fernandes' agent held extensive talks with Al Hilal officials in Riyadh, where the club also expressed willingness to pay a substantial transfer fee and meet high wage demands, including Fernandes' request of £25 million per season plus add-ons. Although Fernandes stated he would not obstruct Manchester United if they decided to sell him, the club has expressed reluctance to part ways with their captain. Al Hilal had hoped to secure Fernandes' transfer ahead of the upcoming Club World Cup in the United States, but no formal offer has been submitted to Manchester United as the player's family remains a key consideration in his decision. Fernandes has been a key figure at Old Trafford since 2020, recently becoming club captain and contributing significantly with 98 goals in 290 appearances. Despite the Saudi club's persistence and financial muscle, Fernandes is committed to staying in Europe and competing at the highest level.
