Bruno Fernandes ‘decision made’ as Man United plot Matheus Cunha transfer after Amorim bombshell

Manchester United’s 2-0 loss to West Ham on Sunday marked their 17th Premier League loss of the season, leaving them with more introspection to do.

The Reds have made it clear that winning the Europa League this season is now their first priority. A lucrative spot in the Champions League for the following season will be guaranteed with a victory over Tottenham Hotspur in Bilbao on May 21.

However, Ruben Amorim has admitted that his team is still a long way from where they ought to be. Shortly after their most recent loss at Old Trafford, the former Sporting manager said that if United’s appalling league performance carries over into the 2025–2026 season, he might lose his job.

Wolverhampton Wanderers star Matheus Cunha is a top target for M16, which is expected to have a busy summer. Although The Manchester Evening News knows that the club has no intention of allowing captain Bruno Fernandes to relocate to Saudi Arabia, he has been linked to the country. Here are some of the most recent United-related news, along with an analysis of each one.

Fernandes ‘decision’

Former Manchester City financial advisor Stefan Borson has weighed in on the chances of Bruno Fernandes leaving Manchester United this summer.

“I don’t think it’s a case of renegotiating with Fernandes at his age,” Borson told Football Insider. “He’s already on a very big salary. We know what they’re doing to their overall salary cost.

“So, I think it’s much more about whether they just decide they’re going to keep him or if they’re going to take the fee, whatever that fee is from Saudi. I think it’s very unlikely that the fee will be the sort of numbers that have been speculated. They very rarely pay very big fees of the type that’s been rumoured there. Clearly, they paid it for Neymar, which was a disastrous deal.

“There is some speculation they’re going to pay a very big fee for Kudus from West Ham. We will see about that. They paid a reasonably sized fee for Duran, although that’s a different category of deal given his age and given the striker.

“They have paid very big wages but have tended not to pay very big transfer fees, and we’ll have to see whether that changes this summer. But if they weren’t to, then I think that would be the deal dead as far as Fernandes is concerned. I don’t think United would contemplate selling him unless they could get an extraordinarily large fee anyway.”

Isaac Seelochan of The Manchester Evening News says:“It’s possible that Fernandes may choose to leave in a year’s time when he has just a year left on his contract. If United remain a mess on and off the pitch, that decision is likely to be a lot easier.”

Matheus Cunha is apparently attracting new interest from Arsenal and Manchester United. The Reds are reportedly still “calm and confident” in their efforts to push the Wolves ahead, though.

Regardless matter whether United makes it to the Champions League the next season, according to GiveMeSport, Cunha is eager to join the team. It is said that United wants to move more quickly on a contract when the Europa League final is over so they can fully explain to Cunha what they can offer in terms of money and competition.

Isaac Seelochan of The Manchester Evening News says:“It’s encouraging for United that they still appear to be attractive for players of Cunha’s calibre. However, while few can question his talent, there must still be question marks over his temperament and whether he has the character needed to help get United back to the top.”
