Manchester United are reportedly set to offer skipper Bruno Fernandes a staggering new contract worth £375,000 per week in a bid to secure his long-term stay at Old Trafford. The Red Devils are acting swiftly to lock in their record-breaking midfielder after a historic season, putting an end to any suggestions that talks might be delayed until later this year.

United plan a huge financial package

The club is believed to be preparing a substantial offer for their inspirational leader following an exceptional individual campaign. As per SportsBoom, the Red Devils intend to fend off interest from Saudi Arabian clubs and major European sides by accelerating contract discussions. The proposed deal aims to dismiss all speculation about delays and ensure the Portuguese playmaker remains central to Manchester United’s future.

Fernandes focused on building a lasting legacy

Sources close to the negotiations have revealed that the Portuguese star has no desire to leave Old Trafford despite receiving lucrative offers from abroad. The 31-year-old, who has settled comfortably in Alderley Edge, is deeply committed to his captaincy role and leadership within the dressing room. Fernandes is said to be determined to strengthen his reputation as one of the modern greats, convinced that the club is finally on course to reclaim its old glory.

Carrick to build squad around the award-winning captain

The new deal would represent a well-earned 50 percent increase on his current £250,000-a-week wages, supplemented by generous performance bonuses linked to Premier League and Champions League success. Newly appointed manager Michael Carrick considers Fernandes the driving force of his side. This confidence stems from a remarkable season in which the midfielder claimed both the Premier League Player of the Season and the Football Writers' Footballer of the Year awards, while also setting a new all-time Premier League assists record with 21 assists.

World Cup duties before contract completion

Fernandes remains under contract with United until next June, with the club holding an option to extend for another year. Nonetheless, officials at Old Trafford are optimistic that this lucrative proposal will convince their captain to dedicate his remaining peak years to the club through a new four or five-year deal.

With his immediate focus now on leading Portugal in the upcoming World Cup in the United States, the formal signing of the new contract is expected after the tournament, giving Carrick a settled and motivated squad as United prepare for their European campaign.
