Former Arsenal striker Ian Wright has expressed his desire to see Manchester United’s Bruno Fernandes join the Gunners. Fernandes has been a standout performer for the Red Devils this season, consistently delivering impressive performances despite the team’s struggles.
Wright’s comments came after reports emerged linking Fernandes to a possible exit from Old Trafford at the end of the season. While there is no concrete evidence to support the claims, Wright believes that Fernandes would be a valuable addition to Arsenal’s squad.
“Bruno Fernandes has been one of the few bright spots in a frustrating season for Manchester United,” Wright said on The Overlap. “I wish we had Bruno Fernandes. I wish we had Bruno. I would love to have him at Arsenal.”

However, the likelihood of Fernandes joining Arsenal is complicated by the fact that Manchester United would need to be willing to sell one of their key players to a direct rival. Additionally, Fernandes’ market value remains high, and Arsenal would need to be prepared to make a significant investment to secure his services.

With his tactical intelligence, attacking presence, and strong personality, Fernandes could be a valuable addition to Arsenal’s squad.
The possibility of Fernandes’ departure from Manchester United also raises questions about the club’s direction and ability to retain its key players. Rather than reinforcing a rival, the interest in Fernandes may highlight the need for Manchester United to undergo a serious rebuild and create a more competitive environment that can retain its top talent.
For now, the idea of Fernandes joining Arsenal remains a pipe dream, but it’s an intriguing possibility that could have significant implications for both clubs. The next summer transfer window approaches and fans will be keeping a close eye on developments and speculating about potential signings.
