Fernandes Says He Stayed at Man U After the Club Promised Him a Key Role
Manchester United captain, Bruno Fernandes, has opened up about why he turned down offers to leave Old Trafford last summer.
The Portuguese midfielder confirmed that he received offers from other clubs but chose to have a conversation with the club’s management and former manager Erik ten Hag before making a decision. He wanted to know if the club still saw him as part of their long-term plans.
According to Fernandes, the club assured him that he would play a key role in their rebuilding process. Feeling valued and confident in the project, he decided to stay at Old Trafford.
Speaking after United’s 4-1 win over Real Sociedad in the UEFA Europa League Round of 16, Fernandes said, “I had an offer to leave, so I sat down with the club to discuss my future. I asked if they still considered me part of their plans. Both the club and Ten Hag made it clear that they saw me as an important part of the rebuild, and I believed we could achieve success together.”
Fernandes has been a driving force for Manchester United this season. His performance against Real Sociedad on Thursday, March 13, was outstanding. He scored a hat-trick, helping United secure a 5-2 aggregate win and advance to the Europa League quarterfinals.
