Overview
- Fabrizio Romano publicly denied reports that Bruno Fernandes offered himself to Real Madrid, calling the story completely fake.
- Romano said nothing happened in January regarding a move and that Fernandes did not open talks with Real Madrid.
- Reporting indicates Fernandes is expected to remain at Manchester United through the end of the season as he targets a European push under Michael Carrick.
- Romano noted long-standing external interest in Fernandes, including from Saudi clubs, but said there have been no fresh proposals and the player has rejected approaches before.
- Fernandes’ contract runs to 2027 with an option for a further year, and speculation has persisted since his December comments that the club wanted him to go last summer.
