Amorim denies Bruno Fernandes' departure from Old Trafford
According to recent reports, Manchester United captain and leading goalscorer of the current season, Bruno Fernandes, has become a target for Real Madrid in the upcoming transfer window. The Portuguese maestro has been a key figure at Old Trafford since his arrival. Despite facing harsh criticism in recent weeks, he has consistently shouldered the team's responsibilities. Amidst these rumors, the Manchester United manager has denied any speculation regarding the player's potential departure.
Talking to the media, the Manchester United boss mentioned that the player is going nowhere and he has already conveyed the message to him. He said:
No, it's not going to happen
He's not going anywhere because I've already told him
Ruben Amorim, expressing his desire to win the Premier League in the coming years, emphasized the importance of retaining the best players at the club. He also highlighted that Bruno, at just 30 years old, has already played 55 matches this season, showcasing remarkable consistency. Amorim further stated that the Portuguese maestro has a 30-goal season in him, saying:
We want to win the Premier League again so we want the best players to continue with us. He's 30 but he's still so young because he plays 55 games every season and between assists and goals he's there for 30 at least.
Real Madrid boasts a strong midfield, with several youngsters dominating the pack. However, they seek to fill the void left by Toni Kroos, and with Luka Modric approaching the later stages of his career, the club wants to find someone to fill the role effectively.
What next for Manchester United?
Manchester United will face Nottingham Forest in the Premier League fixture on 1st April. With nine remaining games to go, Manchester United will look to finish high on the table in the Premier League and finish in the first half of the table. On the other hand, the Red Devils are in the Europa League quarterfinals and this will be crucial for Amorim as they bid to be in the Champions League next season.
