In exciting news for Manchester United fans, it has been confirmed that Bruno Fernandes will be staying with the club for at least another three years. The Portuguese midfielder, who has been a key player for the Red Devils since his arrival in January 2020, recently signed a new contract that will keep him at Old Trafford until 2027, with the option of an additional year.
However, it was not a straightforward decision for Fernandes, who revealed that he had received tempting offers from other clubs to leave United. Despite speculation that the new ownership under INEOS would be open to selling him this summer, Fernandes ultimately chose to stay with the club he has come to love.
"The club's show of confidence in me was crucial," Fernandes explained in an interview with ESPN Brazil. "Even though I had other options, the club made it clear that they wanted me to stay and be a part of their plans for the future. I believe in the direction the club is heading and I see a bright future here."
It is no surprise that other clubs were interested in Fernandes, who has been a standout player for United and was even named captain last summer. However, the 29-year-old is determined to continue making a difference at Old Trafford, and he has already scored an impressive 79 goals and provided 67 assists in just 234 appearances.
While it may have been tempting to consider other opportunities, Fernandes ultimately decided to remain loyal to United, who have shown him nothing but love and respect since his arrival. He also expressed his excitement for the changes happening within the club and the potential for even more success in the future.
As the new Premier League season approaches, Fernandes is eager to continue his impressive performances and help United challenge for silverware. He has already made a strong start, with a great performance in the Community Shield against Manchester City, despite the eventual loss on penalties.
With the new contract in place, United fans can look forward to seeing more of Fernandes' incredible skills on the pitch for years to come. As always, stay tuned for the latest news, exclusives, and analysis on Manchester United.
