United manager Ruben Amorim raised any speculation surrounding the future of club captain Bruno Fernandes, openly reaffirming the importance of the midfielder to his plan.
As Fabrizio Romano reported, Amorim addressed the media, making it clear that Fernandes is at the heart of his long-term vision he hopes to implement at Old Trafford.
“Of course, Bruno takes the responsibility. He is really important to us.” Amorim said.
“He’s also very important to what we want to build with this team.”
Bruno Fernandes is linked to Old Trafford export
Fernandes has been the subject of transfer speculation in recent months, with Saudi Arabia’s interest and several European giants in the midst of Manchester United’s turbulent 2024/25 campaign.
Al-Hilal, the Saudi side, seriously considered Fernandez’s move this summer.
On the European Front, Bayern Munich admires the co-captain, especially after the German giant admitted to the pursuit of Florian Wirtz.
Despite the club’s struggles in the Premier League and inconsistent matches in Europe, Fernandez continues to use his commitment, creativity and leadership on the court as an example.
The Portuguese midfielder had an outstanding unrelated season at the club, scoring 19 goals and providing 20 assists.
Amorim’s comments are not only an open show of faith, but also make it clear that Fernandez will be the cornerstone of the Portuguese manager program as he begins to reshape the team.
Manchester United wants to remain leader
Known for his tactical discipline and emphasis on structure, Amorim seems to see Fernandez as a tactical asset and a cultural leader in the locker room.
With several changes expected this summer, Fernandez’s role as a stable character may be crucial.
He is currently the best player at Manchester United, and that’s the story since he joined the club in 2020.
Losing his club would be disastrous, which is why Amorim is desperate to keep him at Old Trafford.
