Interest from the four clubs and Galatasaray's economic offensive
As The Telegraph revealed, Galatasaray leads the bid with an offer valued at €50 million, divided into €35 million guaranteed—payable in three installments until 2028—and €15 million in performance-related variables. President Dursun Özbek oversees the operation, offering the Portuguese international a 4-season contract with a net annual salary of €21 million plus a signing bonus of €4 million.
Simultaneously, AC Milan, Juventus, and Atlético de Madrid have inquired about the player's transfer conditions. Even though all four clubs have made moves to try to secure his incorporation, the Manchester United board remains silent and has not responded to the inquiries from the involved parties.
The situation at Manchester United and Bruno Fernandes' stance
Fernandes is entering the final year of his contract with Manchester United, which expires in June 2027, although the club holds the unilateral option to extend the agreement by 1 more season. The 31-year-old player, who already turned down an offer from Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia, prefers to continue in the Premier League. However, the lack of agreement for his renewal is causing uncertainty among his suitors.
The Manchester United board aims to reduce their wage bill for the 2026/2027 season, where selling the Portuguese would provide immediate liquidity. Nevertheless, coach Michael Carrick internally opposes the departure of his captain, which explains the lack of an official response from the English club to the offers presented.
The boards of Galatasaray, AC Milan, Juventus, and Atletico Madrid are awaiting a response from the British executives in the next 48 hours. If Manchester United breaks their silence and formally rejects the proposals, the buying clubs will consider negotiations closed and seek other alternatives before the market closes.
