Manchester United have no intention at all of selling Bruno Fernandes in the summer transfer window, according to a report.

Fernandes is one of Man Utd’s top players and was in excellent form under manager Michael Carrick last season.

Former Man Utd manager Ruben Amorim used Fernandes in a deeper midfield role for the first half of the season.

But once Carrick arrived, Fernandes was moved back into his familiar number 10 position, and he thrived.

The 31-year-old Portugal international attacking midfielder finished the 2025/26 season with nine goals and 22 assists in 37 matches in all competitions, helping Man Utd secure Champions League qualification.

Fernandes remains under contract with the club until the summer of 2027, with an option to extend it by another year.

There have been recent rumours that Galatasaray want to sign Fernandes from Man Utd in the summer transfer window.

Journalist Suleyman Rodop said last week: “Galatasaray is in talks with young players for the wing position, but I expect them to complete this transfer after signing a number 10 and a striker.

“The asking price for Bruno Fernandes is 50 million Euros, and negotiations will take place on this amount. However, Fernandes’s net annual salary expectation is 20 million Euros.”

However, TEAMtalk has now reported that Man Utd have no intention at all of selling Fernandes in the summer transfer window.

The reliable transfer news outlet has claimed that Fernandes himself is not desperate to leave Old Trafford this summer.

Fernandes is said to be ‘keen on opening talks over a new contract that would extend his stay beyond his current deal’.

The report has further noted: ‘United view him as a long-term leader in the dressing room and a player whose creativity and leadership remain vital.

‘It would take a mammoth offer to prise Fernandes away from the club, with sources stressing that the chances of him leaving are “very, very slim”.

‘The midfielder’s influence both on and off the pitch has only grown over the last two seasons, and the hierarchy have no intention of entertaining approaches that fall short of a record valuation.”

Man Utd manager Carrick himself is said to be very keen to continue working with the Portugal international attacking midfielder.

The report added: ‘Michael Carrick has also made clear his delight at working with Fernandes and is expecting him to play a key role again next season as the club embark on a return to the Champions League and ahead of what they hope will be a sustained push to win the Premier League title.’
