Bruno Fernandes Lays Out Conditions for Staying at Man Utd as He Plays Down Team Resurgence Under Michael Carrick Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has made it clear that his long-term future at Old Trafford hinges on the club’s ability to compete at the highest level. With his current contract set to expire in June 2027, the Portuguese playmaker has demanded guarantees that the Red Devils will remain a serious contender for major trophies, emphasizing that his commitment to the club is tied to its success on the pitch. Fernandes, who joined from Sporting CP in 2020, has become a key figure in United’s midfield but has yet to secure the Premier League title since his arrival. Fernandes, 31, has spoken candidly about his expectations, stating that his primary goal is to win trophies. In an interview with The Telegraph, he said, “I tell the club I want to compete. Everyone that comes to Man United wants to win every trophy. No one thinks in coming to the club that we’re going to fight for one or two trophies in six years. You want to fight for all of them. And what I said to the club every time that I spoke with them, what I want from the time I’m here, I want to compete. Because if I compete, I will be close to winning. If I don’t compete, there’s no chance I’m going to get close to anything.” The midfielder has only won two major trophies during his six-year tenure at Old Trafford, a number he believes is insufficient for a club of United’s stature. For Fernandes, the absence of a Premier League title since 2013 is a critical issue. He reiterated that while he cannot guarantee a league win, he expects the club to be competitive and consistently challenge for top honors. “What I always say to the club is: ‘You can’t promise me that I’m going to win the Premier League.#manchester_united #premier_league #michael_carrick #bruno_fernandes #man_united
