Bruno Fernandes' Potential Move to Saudi Pro League

Manchester United's captain, Bruno Fernandes, has been a pivotal figure at Old Trafford, but recent reports suggest he could be open to a move to the Saudi Pro League. Despite turning down offers from Al Hilal, Al Nassr, and Al Ittihad, the 30-year-old midfielder might reconsider his stance after the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Al Hilal had reportedly offered £80 million, but Fernandes chose to stay with United for the upcoming season.

Manchester United's Transfer Strategy

United could be willing to let Fernandes leave at the end of the season when he will have one year left on his contract, with an option to extend until 2028. The Red Devils are also eyeing Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder Carlos Baleba, though any deal for the Cameroon international would likely cost at least £100 million.

Competition for Marc Guéhi

Liverpool and Manchester City are reportedly in a race to sign Crystal Palace defender Marc Guéhi. Liverpool had a £35 million bid accepted but withdrew at the last minute due to difficulties in securing a replacement. They hope to sign him for a lower fee in January, but City could swoop in while Real Madrid, Barcelona, and Bayern Munich are also interested.
