Ruben Amorim, the manager of Manchester United, stated that he wishes to retain captain Bruno Fernandes at the club.
In a media interview today, Amorim emphasized that Fernandes is “really important” for their goals.
His remarks follow speculation about transfers involving the Portugal international after his comments last week.
Fernandes shone in what was a miserable campaign for the Red Devils, who finished 15th in the Premier League.
United rounded off the season with a 1-0 defeat to Tottenham Hotspur, a result that cost them Champions League qualification.
This has thrown Fernandes’s future into doubt.
Al Hilal are willing to splash out a staggering £100million to bring Fernandes to the Saudi Pro League if the 30-year-old is ready to call time on his Old Trafford career.
But Amorim said: “He’s really important for us and really important for what we want to build with this team.”
He added: “The last game the team was without pressure, they performed quite well, everybody wants the ball, the team has different moments and in different moments Bruno [Fernandes] takes responsibility.”
