According to reports, Manchester United star Fernandes will have an annual salary of more than £65 million if he joins Saudi giants next season

Saudi professional league club Alshiral has reportedly set Bruno Fernandez as their number one transfer target and is ready to give Manchester United a record-breaking offer. Fernandez has cemented his lead role since joining the Red Devils from his hometown Atletico Madrid in 2020.

While Manchester United are in a bad shape this season, Fernandez continues to show off his football talent. He has contributed 19 goals and 18 assists in 52 games.

The Portuguese midfielder has been associated with rumors of traveling to the Middle East since last summer. However, despite his choice to stay at Old Trafford, his suitors did not seem to give up on chasing him.

According to GiveMeSport, Alsiral has made Bruno Fernandez one of the top goals in the summer transfer window. As the season progresses, the amulet of defending Saudi professional league champion Liverpool, Mohamed Salah, is also within their attention. However, their hopes of signing the Egyptian were shattered after he recently signed a new contract with the Merseyside club.

According to the report, Al Hillal has issued a £170 million contract for Salah every season, with a contract of three years. Since the deal was not realized, it means they can use Salah’s designated fund to attract Fernandez to Riyadh. They have reportedly sent a non-binding offer to Fernandez, hoping to get him on a three-year contract. However, he did not respond. To this end, he earns more than £65 million per season.

Bruno Fernandez is currently Manchester United's second highest-paid player. He earns £300,000 per week ($378,941), which is equivalent to £15.6 million per year ($19,704,906). His current contract with Manchester United expires in 2027, and his market value is 55 million euros, according to Transfermarkt.

Manchester United's attitude towards Bruno Fernandez

According to Al Hillal, Al-Hilal, is reportedly preparing to offer a generous offer for Bruno Fernandez, but Manchester United is reluctant to sell the midfielder.

Manchester United is open to the offer of most first-team players because they want to balance income and expenditure. However, according to the Daily Mail, Al Hilal has not yet made a formal offer for Fernandez. Even if someone comes, they will refuse because they don't consider selling their captain.

Fernandez reportedly rejected an invitation from the Middle East last summer, hoping to sign a new long-term contract with Old Trafford in August 2024.
