Bruno Fernandes rejects Saudi Arabia move

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has rejected a move to Saudi Arabia.

Fernandes does not want a move to Saudi Arabia at this stage of his career, reports confirmed on Tuesday.

The feeling is the 30-year-old midfielder still has plenty to offer top-level European football.

Al Hilal were willing to pay £100 million for the Portugal international, though United had not received an official offer.

United do not want to sell Fernandes, who has a contract until 2027, with the option of a further year.

It is understood the midfielder discussed the potential Saudi deal with his family and his decision was both a football and personal one, Sky Sports reported.

Fernandes has contributed 98 goals and 87 assists in 290 games in all competitions since moving to United from Sporting Lisbon in January 2020.
