In recent days, Al Nassr club in Saudi Arabia is seriously considering the possibility of bringing Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes to Mrsool Park for a transfer fee of up to 128 million pounds.
Fernandes has become one of the most important players for the “Red Devils” since joining the club in January 2020 from Sporting CP. During his time at Old Trafford, he scored 56 goals and reached 45 assists in 178 appearances. The Portuguese midfielder’s significant contributions helped United win the English League Cup in the 2022/23 season.
However, last season, Fernandes encountered some performance problems, preventing him from performing to his potential. This has caused the club’s leadership to consider replacing the team in this summer transfer window.
It is known that Al Nassr is trying to build a competitive squad in all competitions, after successfully recruiting superstar Cristiano Ronaldo last January. And owning Fernandes will be an ambitious step for this Saudi Arabian team.
At £128 million, this will be a record transfer fee for Al Nassr. However, their leadership seems to be willing to spend this huge amount of money to get the services of the Portuguese midfielder.
If this deal is completed, Fernandes will become the second most expensive transfer player in world football history, only behind Neymar when he joined Paris Saint-Germain for a fee of 222 million euros in 2017.
In the coming time, fans will closely monitor the developments of this transfer, because it will significantly affect the future of Bruno Fernandes as well as Al Nassr’s team building plan.
