Juventus has placed Bruno Fernandes, a 31-year-old attacking midfielder, among its top priorities in this summer market after his contract renewal with Manchester United stalled. It is the big signing that Vecchia Signora is preparing to win Serie A.

The Italian club is looking to take advantage of the £57 million release clause stipulated for teams outside of England in the Portuguese player's contract, which expires in June 2027. However, the player's high financial demands - valued between €50 and 75 million - complicate the operation in Turin.

Juventus Wants to Sign Bruno Fernandes: Complex Operation

The lack of Champions League qualification after finishing sixth in Serie A limits Juventus' economic capacity under the direction of Luciano Spalletti. The Turin club currently does not have the necessary financial margin to meet the salary demands of the Portuguese international, who earns £250,000 weekly in England and seeks higher salary conditions to finalize a move from Old Trafford.

Additionally, CalcioMercato reports that Juventus deems the short-term inclusion unfeasible due to the total cost of the operation and the absence of continental competition. Although Manchester United's management has a proposal on the table to extend his contract, the £57 million release clause remains active until the renewal is signed.

Galatasaray's Alternative Proposal to Manchester United

Galatasaray has entered the bidding offering an annual salary of £17 million (£325,000 weekly), leveraging the Turkish tax system to convince the Manchester United captain. However, the Istanbul team plans to present a formal transfer proposal of only £25 million, an amount insufficient to persuade the English board.

Despite Juventus' interest and the financial offer in Turkey, the player does not consider moving to the Süper Lig at this stage of his career after rejecting proposals from Saudi Arabia. The attacking midfielder prefers to compete in European elite football or solidify his continuity with the Manchester club.

Manchester United's representatives have scheduled new working meetings during the last week of July 2026 to bridge gaps regarding the contract extension.

If discussions with the British board do not yield results, Juventus will keep the player on its list of candidates awaiting adjustments to its salary budget before the close of the transfer window.
