Manchester United and their captain, Bruno Fernandes, have reportedly agreed on a new contract extension, according to the well-known transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano.

This new agreement effectively puts an end to any speculation surrounding Fernandes’ future with the club. Recently, there had been rumors suggesting that Fernandes might leave following Manchester United’s disappointing 2023/24 season. The team finished in a disappointing eighth place in the Premier League, marking their worst league performance since the 1989/90 season.

Despite the team’s overall struggles, Fernandes managed to deliver an outstanding individual performance. In the 48 matches he played across all competitions, he scored 15 goals and provided 13 assists. His contributions were vital in helping Manchester United secure the FA Cup by defeating Manchester City at Wembley.

There had been speculation linking Fernandes with moves to clubs in the Saudi Pro League as well as European giants like Bayern Munich, Barcelona, and Inter Milan. His existing contract, which was signed in April 2022, was worth approximately £220,000 per week and was due to expire in 2026, with an option for an additional year.

According to Romano, Fernandes is now on the verge of finalizing a new deal that would make him one of Manchester United’s highest-paid players. Romano shared the news on X (formerly Twitter), stating, “Manchester United have reached an agreement with Bruno Fernandes to extend his contract!”

The new contract is expected to be valid until June 2027, with an option to extend it until June 2028. This new deal will ensure that Fernandes continues to be one of the top earners at the club. Romano also mentioned that everything is set to be finalized before the summer transfer window closes.
