Officials at English club Manchester United have revealed the truth about the rumors regarding their intention to sell Portuguese player Bruno Fernandes to the Saudi league during the last summer transfer window.

The club confirmed, through the trusted journalist Ben Jacobs, that there is currently no intention to let Bruno go, emphasizing that he is a key element in Manchester United's long-term project.

The report clarified that Saudi interest in signing Bruno Fernandes remains ongoing, but Manchester United's management considers the player's continued presence a technical necessity despite strong offers from Al-Hilal, Al-Nassr, and Al-Ittihad clubs.

In contrast, Bruno Fernandes surprised the fans with statements in the media, confirming that he felt the club wanted him to leave, but he did not have the courage to make the final decision.

The Manchester United captain pointed out that his conversation with the coach was a decisive factor in his decision to stay, along with family reasons and his deep love for the club, despite feeling a negative message from the management.

The Portuguese player added that this feeling caused him great sadness, especially since he is always ready and never late to participate, whether he performs well or modestly on the field.

Bruno emphasized that he has not ruled out the idea of playing in Saudi Arabia in the future, but he prefers to stay in Europe until he participates with the Portuguese national team in the 2026 World Cup.

He concluded his speech by emphasizing that he did not leave for financial reasons, explaining that his loyalty to the club was always based on conviction, even though he understood that financial considerations can sometimes take precedence over emotions.
