Bayern transfer stance revealed as Man Utd could sell £87m star | OneFootball

Manchester United could reportedly be looking to offload Bruno Fernandes next summer. 

The Portuguese international is arguably one of the best players for the Red Devils post-Sir Alex Ferguson era, and he has been a talismanic figure at Old Trafford.

Last summer, Fernandes was linked with moves to clubs in the Saudi Pro League, but he decided to remain in the Premier League.

According to a report from Caughtoffside, Man Utd could be forced to offload their skipper due to internal circumstances.

The Red Devils have seen a dramatic turn in fortunes following the appointment of Michael Carrick, who replaced Ruben Amorim.

The 20-time Premier League champions are looking to bolster their midfield next summer, and they have been linked with several players already.

Casemiro will leave on a free transfer in the summer, while the futures of Fernandes and Manuel Ugarte are in doubt.

Ideally, Man Utd love to keep him at the club, but they also realise that this is their best chance to cash in on the 31-year-old midfielder.

Are Bayern Munich interested in signing Bruno Fernandes?

The Bavarian giants have been linked with a move for Fernandes over the past few months, but they have no interest in him.

Bayern will lose Leon Goretzka next summer for free, and while they could be looking to bring in a new midfielder, Fernandes, who is on high wages, is not the profile of players the German giants are looking at the moment.

The Red Devils could reportedly demand a fee of around £87m for Fernandes, but Bayern have no interest in paying anywhere close to that figure.

Bayern have plenty of attacking midfielders in their ranks, and the emergence of Lennart Karl should give them the freedom to look for options elsewhere on the pitch.
