Bruno Fernandes Reveals He Had an Offer to Leave Manchester United – Here’s Why He Stayed
Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes opens up about a summer transfer offer and why he chose to stay at Old Trafford.
Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has revealed that he received an offer to leave the club during the summer. However, after serious talks with the club and then manager Erik ten Hag, he decided to stay and be part of the team’s rebuilding process.
In a recent interview, Fernandes revealed that he sat down with the club to discuss his future after receiving an offer to leave. The Portuguese midfielder wanted to understand whether United still saw him as an important player moving forward.
“I had an offer to leave, so I spoke with the club about my future. I wanted to know if they still considered me a key part of their plans,” Fernandes explained.
Fernandes shared that both Erik ten Hag and the club’s management made it clear they wanted him to stay and be a leader in the new phase of the team’s rebuild.
“They told me what they expected from me. I also had a conversation with Ten Hag, and he was very clear that I was going to be an important part of the project,” he added.
Despite a poor start to the season, Fernandes believed in the club’s vision and chose to remain at Old Trafford, convinced that success was still possible.
Although Fernandes stayed, United’s season didn’t go as planned. A series of disappointing results led to Erik ten Hag losing his job, something Fernandes believes was the responsibility of the entire squad, not just the manager.
“It wasn’t just his fault. The results and performances weren’t good, and we all shared the responsibility,” he admitted.
With a new manager now in charge, Fernandes remains committed to Manchester United and is focused on helping the team succeed.
“We’re in a different situation now, with a coach who has a new way of thinking and playing. I’m still very happy at the club,” he concluded.
Fernandes’ decision to stay shows his commitment to the team and his belief that Manchester United can return to winning ways. Now, with a fresh start under a new manager, fans will be hoping that he can help lead the team to success.
