Manchester United may allow the captain to move to Saudi Arabia.

The British team talk reported on the 5th (Korea time) 'Manchester United gave Saudi Arabia permission to start negotiations on Bruno Fernandes'

Teamtalk is 'Bruno has been granted permission to delve into Saudi proposals. The first contact has already been made in November 2023. Saudi Arabia's position has become stronger over the past few months. Two teams are currently interested in Bruno, Alnasr and RETHAD, and the two clubs have already explained their positions, projects and roles to Bruno through meetings.

It was then reported that Bruno preferred Alnasr prior to the post-Euro meeting. Alnasr was ahead in the race to sign Bruno. Until a few weeks ago, Bruno had considered staying at Manchester United more, but now there is optimism that he could also bring Bruno from Saudi Arabia. Already they have come up with a huge contract offer that United can't keep up with. They are going to spend a huge amount of money to secure the players.

It's an unconventional decision for Manchester United. Bruno is a key player who has consistently maintained his position in the starting lineup despite Manchester United's various difficulties since joining in 2020. Despite Manchester United's poor performance in the previous season, Bruno was sluggish alone and tried to support the team. From the 2023-2024 season, he has become the center of the team by wearing the captain's armband.

However, Manchester United, which is about to change under owner Jim Ratcliffe, seems to be fully considering selling Bruno. If persuaded by Saudi Arabia's enormous proposal, it also seems to have the possibility of selling Bruno in mind.

Among Saudi clubs, al-Nasr, in particular, will be more active in recruiting Bruno. Cristiano Ronaldo, who is already at the core of the team, reportedly requested Bruno to be recruited. British media reported that `Ronaldo is reportedly attempting to recruit Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes to Alnasr during this summer's transfer window.'

Meanwhile, Bruno also did not hide his intention to transfer just before the end of the 2023-2024 season. Asked about the transfer rumors, he said "It's not just up to me, is it?"The player wants to stay, but at the same time, the club needs to stay. I'm not thinking too much about the future. This season has fallen short of what I expected, both individually and as a team", he indirectly mentioned the possibility of a transfer.

Bruno, who was considered a solid key to Manchester United, is increasingly likely to leave the team. How Manchester United's plans and Saudi plans will flow this summer is expected to be determined by Bruno's transfer.
