Manchester United Captain Bruno Fernandes Sends Cryptic Message Amid Al-Hilal Mega-Money Offer
Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has sent fans into a frenzy with a cryptic social media post as rumours intensify over a potential £100 million move to Al-Hilal. The Portuguese midfielder, who has long been the club’s talisman, posted a message that left supporters scratching their heads and speculating about his future at Old Trafford.
According to sources, Al-Hilal have made a formal offer worth £100 million to secure Fernandes’ services, with his agent reportedly flying to Saudi Arabia for talks with the club’s executives. The Saudi Pro League side is prepared to make Fernandes one of the best-paid footballers in the world, nearly tripling his current £250,000-a-week salary.
Despite the lucrative deal on the table, both Fernandes and Manchester United’s manager have publicly stated the player wants to remain at the club. However, United’s disappointing season—finishing 15th in the Premier League and losing the Europa League final to Tottenham—has put additional pressure on the club to convince their captain to stay. The 30-year-old remains under contract until 2027, with an option for a further year.
Fernandes’ latest cryptic post follows persistent speculation linking him with a move to the Middle East. The Instagram message—which did not specify any intentions—was met with concern from fans, who fear losing their influential leader after a difficult campaign.

The news comes amid reports that Al-Hilal are also targeting Cristiano Ronaldo, who could become a free agent next month if he does not renew with Al Nassr. The Saudi club is aiming to finalize at least one high-profile signing ahead of the upcoming Club World Cup in the United States.
As the transfer saga unfolds, Manchester United are reportedly eyeing Sporting CP star Pablo Gonçalves as a potential replacement should Fernandes depart. The next days will be crucial for Fernandes, as he is said to have seven days to decide on the Al-Hilal offer.
