What is Man Utd’s stance on a transfer?

United are reportedly unwilling to lose their captain and star player ahead of next season, particularly given their need to bounce back from such a poor campaign on the pitch. However, they may be tempted into doing a deal in order to keep within financial limits set by the Premier League’s Profit & Sustainability Rules and fund a squad rebuild.

What Bruno Fernandes has said

Speaking on his future after the Europa League final, Fernandes intimated that he wished to remain at United, but accepted that the club may want to cash in on him.

“I have always been honest. I’ve always said I will be here until the club says to me that it’s time to go.

“I’m eager to do more, to be able to bring the club the great days. In the day that the club thinks that I’m too much or it’s time to part ways, football is like this, you never know it. But I’ve always said it and I keep my word in the same way.

“If the club thinks it’s time to part ways because they want to do some cashing in or whatever, it’s what it is, and football sometimes is like this.”

What Ruben Amorim has said

“I don’t think so,” answered Amorim when asked if Fernandes had played his last game for for Man Utd.

“I don’t know for sure, nobody knows, but I don’t think so. I think he is seeing us taking some actions to change all the things and I think that is all that he asked. I think he wants to stay.

“He’s saying no to a lot of things, but it shows that he wants to win and I think he’s really young, he’s really good. He needs to be in the best league in the world.”
