According to SaedNews:

Speculation over Bruno Fernandes’ future at Manchester United continues, with several clubs showing interest in the Portuguese captain.

BBC reported that Galatasaray, Juventus and AC Milan are among the teams monitoring Fernandes. The Turkish club is said to be preparing a final offer worth up to €50 million (£42.7 million), but sources close to United believe the move will not succeed as the club is determined to keep the midfielder.

People familiar with Manchester United’s position say the club will not accept any proposal for Fernandes. Their stance goes beyond simply rejecting offers, as United now consider the player unavailable at any price.

The current position differs from last summer, when the club allowed Fernandes to make his own decision regarding a huge offer from Al Hilal. The midfielder later admitted that the situation had upset him.

Fernandes has one year remaining on his contract, with an option for a further one-year extension. Reports indicate that the player prefers to stay at Old Trafford.

His £57 million release clause has now expired, while United and Fernandes have yet to reach an agreement over new terms.

The Portuguese midfielder recorded 21 assists last season, setting a Premier League record, and is among the candidates for the 2025-2026 Premier League Player of the Season award next week.
