Man United captain Bruno Fernandes receives ‘contract’ offer amid Victor Osimhen transfer twist

Manchester United return to action when they host Athletic Club de Bilbao in the second leg of their Europa League semi-final. Ruben Amorim’s side head into the game with a three-goal advantage, having steamrolled to a comfortable win at San Mames last Thursday.

Casemiro’s header and a brace from Bruno Fernandes earned United a 3-0 win in Bilbao, giving them a massive advantage going into the second leg at Old Trafford. However, Amorim’s side know the tie is far from over and will be determined to get the job done and progress to the final later this month.

While United’s main focus is on the Europa League and the rest of the season, the Reds will have one eye on the summer transfer window. Amorim is keen to strengthen his squad and there has been talk that he could sign a number of players, though United’s European fate is set to determine who they can sign.

Fernandes offer
Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has been offered a three-year contract with Al-Hilal. The Saudi Pro League side are confident of agreeing a deal and signing the 31-year-old, who is yet to respond to the club’s proposal, in the summer transfer window.

Manchester Evening News understands that, however, United have no intention of selling the Portuguese to Saudi Arabia. They have no interest in entertaining offers for the instrumental Fernandes and he is considered as a key player for Ruben Amorim’s rebuild at Old Trafford.
