Manchester United has firmly dismissed reports linking midfielder Bruno Fernandes with a £90 million move to Real Madrid, reiterating that the Portuguese playmaker is not for sale.
Speculation about Fernandes’ potential transfer to the Spanish giants intensified in recent days, with several media outlets suggesting that Madrid was preparing to make a significant offer for the 29-year-old. However, the Red Devils have swiftly moved to squash these rumours, affirming their commitment to keeping Fernandes at Old Trafford.
A Manchester United spokesperson confirmed on Monday, “Bruno Fernandes is a key player for Manchester United, and we have no intention of letting him leave the club. Any reports suggesting otherwise are purely speculative.”
Fernandes, who joined United in 2020 from Sporting Lisbon, has since become a central figure in the team’s midfield. His leadership, work rate, and technical ability have made him an integral part of manager Erik ten Hag’s plans, with the player also serving as club captain on several occasions.
Despite Madrid’s reported interest, Manchester United has made it clear that Fernandes remains a crucial part of their long-term project and future ambitions, with no intention of parting ways with him.
Real Madrid’s interest in Fernandes reportedly stems from their ongoing search for a dynamic midfielder to bolster their squad. However, Manchester United’s stance is clear — the Portuguese international is not on the market.
