A few days left until the start of the season. Two weeks left in the transfer market. Manchester United still do not have the latest reinforcements in place, so there is definitely no word of another push to persuade captain Bruno Fernandes to leave Old Trafford as a positive contribution. This time, Manchester United are prepared, but have a nut that needs to be cracked in the negotiations. This “nut” is Rashford’s mega salary.
Earlier in the week, The Telegraph reported that Galatasaray had fired off a bid for Fernandes of £43 million, with an offer of an annual salary of a wild £18 million. What signals have been sent from Old Trafford that give Gala hope that there is an opening, we wonder. The hyperactive transfer journalist Romano explains the situation.

-Man Utd have offered Bruno Fernandes a new contract already at the end of May because Man Utd knew that Galatasaray, for example, but also clubs from Europe, top clubs from Europe, wanted to try to tempt Bruno Fernandez. Man Utd decided to stop all talks by offering a new deal to Bruno. So Man Utd really want him to stay,” Romano begins on his youtube channel.
Adding that Rashford’s return is a new factor in the negotiations.
-Bruno Fernandes’ current deal with Manchester United is valid until June 2027, one more season plus an option for an extension – the club’s option for an extension. So Man Utd feel protected, but Man Utd still want to give Bruno a sense of confidence with a new contract. So the conversation is ongoing. We have to follow the situation. It will certainly be an important negotiation for United. Marcus Rashford’s return internally is an important return because Marcus Rashford’s salary is a huge salary. So this is obviously part of the conversation,” the journalist continues.

-The length of the contract, the salary. Bruno has a buyout clause in his contract with United at the moment. So will this clause stay or not? So this is the conversation with Bruno Fernandes and his agent, but Manchester United are definitely in on it. So we will keep an eye on the situation,” Romano said.
