Bruno Fernandes wants assurances over Manchester United’s ambitions before signing contract extension

Manchester United will be powerless to stop Bruno Fernandes from leaving the Old Trafford club this summer if any of his suitors meet his €65 million release clause and he is willing to leave, according to the Daily Telegraph.

Man United are determined to keep the Red Devils captain this summer but he wants assurances over the club’s ambitions before committing his future.

Fernandes wants to win the Premier League title and the Champions League, and he wants reassurances about the club’s ambitions.

Man United missed out entirely on European football this season after finishing 15th last term and only qualified for the Europa League at the end of the 2023-24 campaign.

They are guaranteed a place in the group phase of the elite European competition next season following some impressive results and performances under manager Michael Carrick.

However, Fernandes wants to know if the Red Devils board will do enough in the summer transfer window to boost the club’s chances of winning major trophies next term and going forward.

The release clause in the 31-year-old’s contract is active until the first half of July, and he may be waiting to see how Man United’s transfer plans unfold before making a decision.

Fernandes is not short of suitors after another impressive campaign which has seen him weigh in with eight goals and 19 assists in 31 league games.
