Breakingng.com had last Friday reported that Man United manager, Ruben Amorim expressed optimism that the team’s captain will stay at the club despite reports linking the captain with a potential move to Saudi Arabia’s Al-Hilal.
“I don’t think so. I don’t know for sure, nobody knows, but I don’t think so,” Amorim stated regarding the possibility of his Fernandes’ departure. “I think he’s seeing us taking some actions to change all the things and I think that is all that he asks.”
