I could have left two times: Bruno Fernandes on loyalty to Manchester United

The Portuguese midfielder was linked with a blockbuster move to Al Hilal over the summer

Since joining Manchester United from Sporting CP five years ago, Bruno Fernandes has been the key figure for the club. Despite United’s on-field difficulties, the Portuguese midfielder ultimately solidified himself as one of the finest in the Premier League and has unquestionably been their best player.

Bruno Fernandes recently talked candidly about joining the Saudi Pro League. Al Hilal reportedly made a multi-million dollar offer for the midfielder, and the team was prepared to pay an incredible £700,000 per week.

Bruno stated in an interview with the Portuguese publication Canal 11 that he loved the club and didn’t want to leave, despite the club’s desire to profit from him.

Bruno Fernandes’ remarks continued to spark discussion and cast doubt on United’s plans to keep hold of their captain & most popular player.

Fernandes is topping the assist rankings in the league yet again this season. The Manchester United No. 8 expressed his allegiance in a conversation with Rio Ferdinand.

Bruno Fernandes talks about his loyalty to Man United

He stated on the “Rio Ferdinand Presents” podcast:

“Loyalty in football before was like [Francesco] Totti at Rome, [Ryan] Giggs at United, [Paolo] Maldini at Milan, so when I came to the club, apart from loving being here and loving the club, I think my loyalty was in the toughest periods and I could have left two times.”

United are only two points behind fourth-place Chelsea after making progress this season. The Red Devils’ most recent game ended in a 4-4 draw with Bournemouth, and their next match against Aston Villa will be a difficult one.
