Revealed: Al-Ittihad Salary Offer to Bruno Fernandes
Bruno Fernandes Receives Massive Salary Offer from Al-Ittihad
The Saudi Pro League’s aggressive recruitment drive continues to target European football’s elite, with Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes reportedly at the center of a new and sensational transfer bid.
Saudi club Al-Ittihad has made a staggering salary proposal to the Portuguese midfielder, raising questions about his future at Old Trafford.
According to various reports from the UK and Saudi Arabia, Al-Ittihad has offered Fernandes a contract that would see his annual earnings skyrocket.
His current salary at Manchester United is estimated to be around £15.6 million per year. The offer from Al-Ittihad is a jaw-dropping £33 million per year, which would more than double his current wages.
The proposed salary, which would make him one of the highest-paid players in the world, comes at a time of uncertainty at Manchester United.
While Fernandes has been a key figure since his arrival in 2020, the club has endured a turbulent period, and the lure of a massive financial windfall could be difficult for any player to refuse.
Reports suggest that Al-Ittihad has been in talks with Fernandes’ representatives, and the discussions have been described as “positive.”
The club is pushing to finalize a deal before the Saudi transfer window closes, and they are reportedly willing to offer a significant transfer fee to Manchester United, with some sources suggesting a bid in the region of £100 million.
Manchester United’s Stance
Manchester United, for their part, have reportedly been “baffled” by the renewed interest in their captain. While they don’t want to lose their influential playmaker, the sheer scale of the offer could force them to consider a sale, especially as they look to comply with Financial Fair Play regulations.
Fernandes himself has previously stated that he is committed to the club, but also hinted that he would consider a move if the club no longer wanted him.
The decision now rests on Fernandes’ shoulders: to stay at a club he loves and where he is captain, or to embark on a new adventure in Saudi Arabia with a life-changing salary.
