Fernandes Refusing To Sign New Manchester United Contract

Portuguese star midfielder Bruno Fernandes is reportedly holding off signing a new contract at Manchester United.

United have approached Fernandes with a stunning new contract offer, which would double his current wage if he signs a new deal.

But, according to The Sun, Bruno is seeking assurances over United’s future transfer plans before he signs on the dotted line.

That apparently hasn’t stopped United from putting some money aside to give their key man a pay boost, with Fernandes currently one of the lowest-paid of their senior first-team players.

But, it is claimed Fernandes wants assurances that the team will be strengthened to mount challenges for silverware before he commits to fresh terms.

The 26-year-old has had a huge impact at United since his £55million arrival from Sporting Lisbon last January, having managed 35 goals and 21 assists in 63 games for the club.
