"That was never in my mind. I wanted to stay at Manchester United, and the club wanted me to stay. That's all there is to it."
"When it was discussed with me, I spoke openly with you at a press conference before a Nations League match. I like to enjoy the moment, and the most important thing for me now is representing the national team, because it's a source of enormous pride to be able to play [against Ireland on Saturday] - and I still don't know if I'll play, let alone if I'll leave Manchester United in a year. That's an impossible scenario to imagine, because it's nothing that's been discussed with me"
"I'm happy where I am. Otherwise, I wouldn't have stayed, but it's something that doesn't affect me."
Bruno Fernandes remains committed to Manchester United and rejected an approach from Al-Hilal, expressing a desire to stay while the club also wanted him to remain. Saudi clubs continue to offer large salaries and have shown ongoing interest, with Al-Ittihad also linked as a potential suitor. Fernandes regards a Saudi move as an impossible scenario to imagine because no discussions have taken place with him and he prefers playing in major European leagues. The 31-year-old is under contract at Manchester United until 2027, with the option of an additional year, and is currently focused on representing Portugal at national team duty.
