Bruno Fernandes Transfer from Manchester United to FC Bayern München
BILD chief Christian Falk has provided two reasons for Bayern Munich's lack of interest in signing Bruno Fernandes. The first reason is financial; Fernandes’ salary at Man Utd is approximately £300,000-a-week, which is an obstacle Bayern does not wish to address. It is also reported that the club is attempting to reduce its wage bill. The second reason is that Bayern considers Fernandes a No 10, a role Jamal Musiala will play when he is fully fit. Serge Gnabry has been playing in the position in Musiala's absence.
Christian Falk has denied reports suggesting that Bayern Munich have added Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes to their transfer shortlist. Contrary to claims circulating in recent days, Bayern have no active interest in pursuing the Portuguese playmaker. Insiders insist that Bayern’s supposed interest is being exaggerated or used as part of a negotiation tactic by the player’s representatives. A senior figure within Bayern’s hierarchy has reportedly dismissed the story, stating that the speculation is not true. Falk says there is no possibility of Bayern Munich making a move for Fernandes at the moment.
According to Christian Falk, Bayern Munich have no interest in signing Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes because the player's high wage demands are considerably beyond their new salary structure.
Bruno Fernandes is under contract with Manchester United until 2027 and a departure in the summer is a conceivable option. While Fernandes has been repeatedly linked with a move to Saudi Arabia, 'Teamtalk' reports that he would only leave United for a top European club and that a transfer to Bayern Munich is significantly more likely than one to Saudi Arabia. However, the 'Bild' podcast 'Bayern Insider' reveals that these rumors are not being actively discussed at present.
TEAMtalk’s transfer insider, Dean Jones, has been informed that Bayern Munich are a club to watch if Fernandes changes clubs next summer. Jones also stressed that a realistic transfer fee is £40m, as Fernandes will be on the cusp of turning 32 next summer and will be one year away from free agency when factoring out the option.
According to TEAMtalk, Bayern Munich have been tipped to make a move for Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes. After turning down advances from Saudi Arabia, the Portuguese midfielder could also move to Real Madrid and may be available for as little as £40 million ($53.3 million).
Sources have told TEAMtalk that Bayern Munich could make a move for Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes. Dean Jones suggested that Bayern Munich could come for Fernandes. Manchester United are considering him worth £40million (€46m, $53.4m).
Bayern Munich have shown interest in Bruno Fernandes after missing out on other targets. Although Fernandes is not actively seeking to leave Manchester United, he may consider it if the club cannot match his ambitions. Bayern have requested a meeting with Fernandes' camp to discuss a potential move. Previously, there were rumors of interest in Fernandes, but nothing substantial occurred. Bayern are aiming to make their team younger and are focusing on wide players.
Team Talk reported on Bayern Munich's interest in Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes as a potential alternative after failing to secure Florian Wirtz. Bayern Munich might consider making a move for Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes, given their admiration for him, and are eager to initiate discussions with Manchester United's representatives regarding a possible deal. Manchester United is in a position where selling multiple players is necessary to finance the club’s summer rebuild, but they are firm in their stance against selling Fernandes at a low price. It would require an offer exceeding £100m for them to entertain the idea of a sale. Bayern Munich lost out to Liverpool in the competition to sign Florian Wirtz, who is set to join the Reds for a fee of €150m (£126m). As a result, Bayern have shifted their focus to Fernandes, identifying him as a prime candidate to occupy the attacking midfielder position. Although Fernandes is content at Old Trafford, the imperative for Manchester United to offload players for their rebuild might lead to his reluctant sale if Bayern meets the required price. Nonetheless, there is uncertainty surrounding Bayern's willingness to meet the over £100m valuation, particularly given that Fernandes is eight years senior to Wirtz.
