Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has posted a cryptic message on his Instagram story amid rumors that he is on the verge of leaving the club. The Portuguese magnifico has been linked with a move to Saudi Pro-League side Al-Hilal after the Red Devils endured a terrible season last term.
Fernandes was one of the only bright lights in a disastrous 2024-25 campaign, bagging 19 goals and 20 assists in 57 games. However, he has muddied the waters about his future as the club looks to rebuild, posting on his Instagram:
"If you tried and failed, congratulations! There are people who don't even try.”
Bruno Fernandes has been a revelation for Manchester United since he arrived from Sporting Lisbon in January 2020 for a reported €65 million. He has scored 98 goals and provided 87 assists in 290 games to help the Reds Devils to one FA Cup and one League Cup.
Ruben Amorim weighs in on Bruno Fernandes' Manchester United future
Manchester United head Coach Ruben Amorim has weighed in on the future of Bruno Fernandes amid speculation about his future. The Portuguese midfielder’s future has been called into doubt amid reports that he could leave the club this summer.
The Portuguese star is viewed as a crucial part of the club’s plans moving forward by Amorim, who said in a recent press conference when pressed about his future via FotMob:
“I don’t think so. I don’t know for sure, nobody knows, but I don’t think so. I think he’s seeing us taking some actions to change things and that’s all he asks. I think he wants to stay. He is saying no to a lot of things, but that shows he wants to win. He’s really young, he’s really good, he needs to be in the best league in the world,”
Bruno Fernandes had a decent season under Ruben Amorim at Manchester United following the tactician’s appointment last year. He bagged 15 goals and 13 assists in 40 games across competitions.
Fernandes is under no pressure to secure a move away from the Red Devils, holding all the cards concerning his future. His contract with the club runs until the summer of 2027.

Patrick is a European and international football journalist at Sportskeeda covering news and transfer rumors. A Business Administration graduate with a professional experience of 10 years, one of his earliest childhood memories is watching Calabar Rovers play at the U.J. Esuene Stadium with his father, with whom, he connects with, discussing the beautiful game.
Patrick’s favorite team is Manchester United for their unparallelled legacy and success in the game. He is a big admirer of Michael Carrick and his ‘smooth’ style of play back in the days. His favorite manager is Jose Mourinho, who according to him, brought a ‘swagger’ to football with his unique managerial style. Robin van Persie’s title-winning volley against Aston Villa for the 2013 PL triumph is etched in his memory forever.
Patrick always uses trusted outlets that produce accurate, balanced and fair information, and which present multiple point of views. He believes in reporting in a holistic manner for the readers’ benefit. If he could change a football rule, he would increase the number of substitutions allowed due to the high number of games played these days, to reduce injuries and so that youngsters get to show their talent as well.
When not covering football, Patrick loves reading, writing poems and short stories, and spend time with his dog Lana.
