Transfer Rumors: Al Nassr Eye Bruno Fernandes for Ronaldo Reunion

The Saudi Pro League continues to shake up the football world, and this time, it’s Al Nassr making headlines. According to reports from A Bola, the Riyadh-based club is making a bold move to sign Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes, hoping to reunite him with Cristiano Ronaldo and manager Jorge Jesus.

💰 Big Money, Big Ambitions

Earlier this summer, Al Hilal attempted to lure Fernandes with a staggering offer:

€120 million transfer fee
€70 million per year salary
Five-year contract

Fernandes turned it down, choosing loyalty to United. But now, Al Nassr—flush with cash and ambition—are stepping in, undeterred by the financial scale.

🇵🇹 Portuguese Power Play

Al Nassr’s strategy is clear: build a Portuguese core. With João Félix already signed from Chelsea, the club is now focused on bringing in Fernandes to complete a trio alongside Ronaldo. Manager Jorge Jesus, who coached Fernandes at Sporting CP, is reportedly playing a key role in the recruitment push.

📞 Ronaldo’s Personal Touch

Sources suggest that Cristiano Ronaldo himself has reached out to Fernandes to convince him to join the Saudi side. The appeal of playing alongside his former teammate and under a familiar coach could be a decisive factor.

⚖️ Will Fernandes Make the Leap?

Despite the tempting package and familiar faces, Fernandes has shown strong commitment to Manchester United. He’s started pre-season in top form and remains central to manager Rúben Amorim’s plans. But with the transfer window still open, anything can happen.
