Bruno Fernandes says he will stay at Manchester United on one condition | OneFootball

Manchester United star Bruno Fernandes has sensationally claimed that he would be open to moves to Spain, Italy and Portugal. 

The Portuguese insisted his priority is to remain at United, but only if they make him feel wanted. 

He admitted earlier this week that he was hurt to realise the club wanted to sell him when Saudi Pro League outfit Al-Hilal made a huge offer last summer. 

Fernandes rejected the move because he loves United. However, his remarks on Wednesday have thrown his future at the club into serious doubt. 

In an interview with Canal 11, he said: “I want to stay at Manchester United as long as I feel desired.”

“I would like to experience the Spanish league and fight for big titles in Italy. I have many connections to Italy. My daughter was born there.

“I’ve already thought about returning to Portugal. The first option would be Sporting. To be happy, like it was with Sporting but I don’t want to ruin the image that was left.

“I don’t want to drag myself there, I want to add to it.

“And even try district football, at an advanced age. You play in the district for love, you feel different. I have friends in the district.”

Fernandes has been the best signing of the post-Sir Alex Ferguson era. He has bagged 103 goals and 93 assists in 307 appearances across all competitions.

The 31-year-old has been an integral part of Ruben Amorim’s team this season. 

He has started all 16 Premier League matches this term, tallying five goals and seven assists.

However, there are doubts about his future after his recent comments. The club’s hierarchy will be displeased with his remarks and may look to sell him next summer. 

Given his quality and experience at the top level, there will likely be plenty of interest in securing his services.
