The Portuguese international has been indispensable for the club, serving as the team’s creative and scoring hub in recent years. Turkish outfit Galatasaray are hoping to secure his signature and would be prepared to pay €60 million for him, according to Fichajes.
The Turkish outfit have put together a talented squad, and they have multiple quality players at their disposal. It is evident that they are looking to build a team capable of doing well in the UEFA Champions League.
Signing the Portuguese international would be ideal for them. It remains to be seen whether Fernandes is prepared to consider a move to Turkey. He could have his pick of top clubs if he is made available in the summer.
The midfielder has seven goals and 14 assists to his name in the Premier League this season, and there is no doubt that he is an elite creator. His chance creation, high-risk, high-reward passing, leadership, and mentality would be exceptional additions to the Galatasaray midfield.
The Turkish outfit needs a creator like him in the final third, and they have the players to amplify his strengths. They have players like Leroy Sané and Barış Alper Yılmaz, who are willing runners and like to aggressively attack space. They will thrive on the through balls from the Portuguese international. Also, the Turkish league is less physically intense, and Bruno Fernandes is likely to have more time on the ball and more freedom to express his style of play.
It remains to be seen whether Manchester United are prepared to sanction his departure. He is a key player for them, and his exit will weaken them. They will need to replace him properly if they decide to cash in. There have been rumours that they could offer Fernandes a massive contract to keep him at the club.
As for the Turkish side, it would be a major coup if they managed to sign one of the best players in the Premier League at the peak of his career.
