Manchester United have given no indication that they have changed their stance on being open to offers for the majority of their players amid interest in Bruno Fernandes.

United have seen Fernandes’ agent open talks with Bayern Munich following a disappointing season. The Red Devils could only finish eighth in the Premier League and ended up rock bottom of their Champions League group.




A major squad overhaul is expected in the upcoming summer transfer window, though United have limited funds due to Financial Fair Play rules. That means that sales of big-name players will almost certainly happen.

Given his high performance levels despite United’s dismal campaign, Fernandes will be one of those who is likely to attract attention. Bayern are known to hold an interest in the midfielder, though his contract still has another two years to run.

According to O Jogo, Fernandes’ agent, Miguel Pinho, has already opened talks with Bayern about a potential move. Barcelona are also monitoring his situation and could make a move of their own.

While a big fee will be needed for United to be tempted into a sale, they may not be against letting him go. According to the Daily Telegraph, United are prepared to listen to offers for the majority of their first-team squad.

In fact, only Kobbie Mainoo, Rasmus Hojlund and Alejandro Garnacho are seen as being ‘off limits’ by chiefs at Old Trafford. New controlling co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe has directed the club to adopt an ‘ultra-flexible’ approach to the window.
