## Key points

- Fernandes has turned down United’s second contract offer.
- United can extend his deal by a year, to 2028.
- His future may depend partly on the club’s next head coach.

## Summary

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has rejected the club’s second offer to extend his contract, leaving his future uncertain as negotiations continue. The club hopes a new deal will keep the Portugal midfielder at Old Trafford, while a likely change of head coach could affect his decision.

Fernandes, 32, is out of contract at the end of the season, but United can extend his current deal by a year, to 2028. If no new agreement is reached, the club is expected to activate that option before 1 January; Fernandes could then sign a pre-contract with a foreign club from January. He has scored six goals in 13 matches this season, after a standout previous campaign, and is thought to want to compete for major honours.
