Bruno Fernandes' agenda has just filled with an unexpected emergency. The captain of Manchester United, central figure of the locker room and the last seasons of the Red Devils, is now under pressure. While his future at Old Trafford still seemed uncertain after a gloomy collective season, an exceptional offer has just turned everything upside down. But what attracts attention is timing. The player only has 72 hours to decide. A decision fraught with consequences.
Behind this emergency, a name: al-Hilal. The Saudi giant offers a dizzying contract: up to 200 million euros over three years, with a weekly salary multiplied by four, reaching € 700,000 net. What upset any career, even that of an accomplished player. According to the English press, the discussions between the Fernandes and Al-Hilal clan are already well advanced. But nothing has yet been signed. And this period of 72 hours, fixed by the Saudi leaders, aims to force the Portuguese to position himself quickly, at the risk of seeing the offer withdrawn.
Fernandes: a high -voltage countdown
Faced with this external pressure, Manchester United could be forced to act. Manager Ruben Amorim is due to his captain and still recalled it: “Bruno is essential to our project”. But the player hinted that he was ready to leave if the club wanted to “make room or collect a good sum”. Note that Paris Saint-Germain also thought of the Lusitanian profile. Luis Enrique, ready to revise his principles, would have identified him as a possible strategic reinforcement. Bayern Munich would also be in the race.
With 30 years on the clock, Bruno Fernandes finds himself faced with a crucial choice: to ensure a last major contract, or continue his adventure in Europe, with his sporting requirements. PSG, Bayern, or al-Hilal? In this game of musical chairs where every hour counts, the Portuguese international holds the keys to his destiny. One thing is certain: its future will not be played on the duration, but on a phone call … within the next 72 hours.
