Saudi Pro League giants Al Hilal have made a stunning £80 million offer to sign Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes, according to reports from The Athletic.

The Saudi club has reportedly been in negotiations to lure the Portuguese international to the Middle East and is prepared to offer the midfielder a lucrative four-year contract worth £21 million per year (approximately £400,000 per week).

This development comes at a critical time for Manchester United, who recently finished a disappointing 15th in the Premier League table and failed to secure UEFA Champions League qualification after losing 1-0 to Tottenham Hotspur in the UEFA Europa League final.

Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has previously emphasized Fernandes' importance to the team, praising the midfielder following their 2-0 victory over Aston Villa on Sunday. "He is so important to us," Amorim stated about his compatriot.

Fernandes, who has been a standout performer for the Red Devils since joining in January 2020, now faces a significant career decision. The 30-year-old midfielder has been the creative engine for United, contributing goals and assists consistently despite the team's overall struggles.

Al Hilal's aggressive pursuit demonstrates the continuing financial power of Saudi Pro League clubs, who have attracted several high-profile European players in recent transfer windows.

Manchester United has not yet officially responded to the offer, and it remains unclear whether they would consider selling their captain or if Fernandes himself is interested in the move to Saudi Arabia.

The potential departure of Fernandes would represent a significant blow to Amorim's rebuilding plans at Old Trafford, particularly as the club looks to improve on their disappointing 2024-25 campaign.
