Manchester United is reportedly considering a bombshell decision to sell club captain Bruno Fernandes this summer for a staggering £87 million
Speculation is intensifying around a dramatic summer decision at Manchester United, with reports claiming the club is considering selling captain Bruno Fernandes for around £87 million. What once seemed unimaginable is now reportedly being debated internally, as executives weigh the financial benefits of cashing in while his market value remains high.
At 31, Fernandes is still among the Premier League’s most influential midfielders. However, concerns over his contract timeline have sparked fears that delaying a sale could weaken United’s bargaining power. European heavyweights Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich are said to be monitoring the situation closely, raising the possibility of a bidding battle if United open negotiations.
Since joining from Sporting CP in 2020, Fernandes has been central to United’s identity during a turbulent post-Sir Alex Ferguson era. His goals, creativity, leadership, and relentless drive have often carried the team through instability. Many supporters view him as the symbol of resilience in difficult seasons.
Opinion is divided. Some believe selling now would fund a much-needed youthful rebuild under the club’s evolving sporting structure. Others argue removing the captain could destabilize the squad and strip away its creative core.
If sanctioned, the move would signal more than a transfer — it would mark the end of a defining chapter at Old Trafford.
