Portuguese player Bruno Fernandes, the captain of Manchester United, has chosen to continue his journey within European football, rejecting a substantial financial offer from Saudi club Al-Hilal.

According to close sources, Fernandes received an official offer from Al-Hilal, one of the prominent clubs in the Roshan League, as part of ongoing attempts to attract top-tier global stars.

Reliable sports journalist Fabrizio Romano clarified that the player carefully considered the offer, but ultimately preferred not to leave Europe, believing that his future still lies in the old continent.

Saudi clubs have been striving for some time to strengthen their squads with global names, as part of an ambitious plan to develop football locally and attract the world's attention to the Saudi league.

It is noteworthy that the 29-year-old player is considered one of the key pillars in Manchester United's lineup and wore the captain's armband during the last season with the 'Red Devils.'
