Bruno Fernandes rejects £133m Al Hilal offer to stay at Manchester United
Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has reportedly rejected a massive contract offer from Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal. The offer was valued at approximately £133 million over a four-year period, which would have equated to roughly £640,000 per week. Despite the lucrative terms, Fernandes has chosen to remain at Old Trafford.
Manchester United has indicated that the midfielder is not available for sale at any price. In response to his importance to the squad, the club has reportedly opened preliminary talks regarding a new contract. The proposed deal could make Fernandes the highest-paid player at the club, with discussions potentially increasing his current weekly wage from £300,000 to approximately £350,000.
Fernandes' decision follows a strong run of form, including a recent hat-trick in a 5-2 victory over Ipswich Town. While interest from clubs like Galatasaray, Juventus, and AC Milan has been noted, United aims to reach a new agreement with their captain before the end of the year.
