Bruno Fernandes: Why Galatasaray believe the stars are aligning for Old Trafford raid
Bruno Fernandes is one of several Manchester United players whose contracts are set to expire next summer.
Although the club holds a one-year extension option, this only offers a temporary solution; INEOS must now decide whether to keep the Portuguese captain for the long term or cash in.

All the signs suggest that they want to keep him. This is clear from everything reported about his contract situation.
Man United struggling to convince Bruno Fernandes to sign new deal
A recent report relayed by The Peoples Person claimed there has been no progress in talks, with “broken promises and doubts over the club’s ambition” cited as reasons for Fernandes’ reluctance.
The source added that discussions are still ongoing and that a breakthrough remains possible.
While fans wait to see whether an agreement can be reached, an interesting update has emerged from Turkey.
Fanatik claims Fernandes, like Lisandro Martinez, is frustrated with the direction United are taking.

The report states that the Portuguese is “tired of praising the club’s history” and feels management must present a clearer vision.
It also states he has moved a step closer to leaving after recent criticism.
“Having rejected a new contract offer in recent weeks, Bruno Fernandes wants this departure to happen in January.”
Fernandes in, Sané out
Galatasaray are reportedly positioning themselves to pounce this winter, Fanatik points out.
Apparently, the Turkish giants are even prepared to let Leroy Sané leave in order to land the Man United skipper.
