'Not a hot topic of interest': Bayern not keen to sign £60m Man Utd star - Sky Sports journalist
Manchester United star Bruno Fernandes is not a transfer target for Bayern Munich this summer.
According to Sky Sport Germany, Fernandes is ‘not a hot topic of interest’ for Bayern who already have Jamal Musiala and Thomas Muller to play in the number 10 role.
The Portuguese outlet A Bola recently claimed the Bundesliga giants are keen to sign Fernandes.
Barcelona are the other club linked with Fernandes, but a potential move seems improbable given their precarious financial situation.
The 29-year-old arrived at the Old Trafford from Sporting Lisbon in January 2020. He has tallied 79 goals and 66 assists in 233 appearances.
Man Utd must build the team around Bruno Fernandes
Fernandes is the beating heart of the Red Devils squad. He consistently delivers moments of magic that leave fans in awe.
This season was disappointing for United, but Fernandes was a shining light.
The Portuguese magnifico has been carrying the weight of expectation with grace and determination over the last four years.
He followed in Eden Hazard’s footsteps to create the most chances in consecutive Premier League campaigns (119 – 2022/23 & 114 – 2023/24).
The £60 million-rated star was awarded with the captain’s armband before the start of the previous season.
Fernandes must keep his emotions in check at times, but it shows how emotional he is about playing for the club.
The rumours of his departure were probably driven by his agent to force United into renewing his deal.
While Fernandes commands £240,000 per week at United, Marcus Rashford (£300,000) and Casemiro (£350,000) outshine him in the salary department.
