Bruno Fernandes turns down lucrative Al Hilal offer to stay at Man United

MUNICH — Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has turned down a proposed move to Saudi club Al Hilal because he wants 'to play at the highest possible level.' Fernandes confirmed Tuesday that he had received an 'exciting offer' from the Riyadh-based club to switch after what was a disappointing season for United. 'They waited for me to think about my future, because I said only if Manchester thought it was the time to move on, that I'd be willing to do so,' Fernandes said through an interpreter. 'I talked to the gaffer, Ruben Amorim, and at the time he asked me not to go. I then talked to Man United. They said they didn't want to sell me. If I wanted to go, I could, but they didn't need the money, they didn't need to sell me.' Media reports suggested Al Hilal was prepared to pay 100 million pounds to take the 30-year-old Fernandes from United while offering him a wage of 700,000 pounds per week to play for the Saudi Pro League team. 'It was a very exciting offer,' Fernandes said. 'The president of Al Hilal, he was very nice to me. He talked to my manager but then I talked to my wife and as a family we wanted to see what I wanted to do. She asked me, what do you want to do with your future?' Fernandes last year signed a contract extension to stay at Old Trafford until June 2027. This season did not go as planned as the Red Devils failed to qualify for the Champions League after finishing 15th in the Premier League, while it also endured the heartbreak of losing the Europa League final to Tottenham. 'We had goals and we didn't meet them,' said Fernandes, a key figure for United since his arrival in January 2020. He said it would have been easy for the family to make the move to Riyadh, and for him to adjust to the team with Portugal teammates Rúben Neves and João Cancelo already playing for Al Hilal. 'I'm used to them, but I want to play at the highest possible level," he said. "I want play for major competitions. I know I still can, and I want to be happy doing the thing I love the most. And for better or worse, I'm still very passionate about football. This is how I see football. This is how I see my life and my future, and I'm happy about the decision I made.' Fernandes was speaking as a Portugal player before the team's Nations League semifinal against Germany on Wednesday in Munich. The winner of that game will face either France or Spain in Sunday's final. soccer: /hub/soccer

Syria looks at new economic dawn, stock market reopens in a recovery signal

AP The overall situation in Syria is turning a new leaf as the Damascus Security Exchange reopened for business after a closure of six months following the dramatic ouster of former president Bashar al-Assad. According to state-run news agency SANA, Syrian Finance Minister Mohammed Yisr Barnieh, who was present at the reopening, stated that the event marks the beginning of the country's economic recovery. He noted that the stock exchange 'will operate as a private company and serve as a genuine hub for Syria's economic development, with a strong focus on digital.' STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD The reopening of Syria's stock market follows after countries around the world have started easing economic restrictions. The US and Europe announced last month that they will lift sanctions on the country that had been imposed during the Assad dynasty's rule. Last week, Syria signed a $7 billion energy agreement with a consortium of companies from Qatar, Turkey, and the United States to develop a 5,000-megawatt power project aimed at restoring large parts of the country's war-damaged electricity infrastructure. Saudi Arabia's Foreign Minister Prince Faisal bin Farhan Al-Saud has announced that the kingdom will jointly offer with Qatar financial support to state employees in Syria. 'The kingdom will provide with Qatar joint financial support to state employees in Syria,' Bin Farhan said during a press conference with his Syrian counterpart Asaad al-Shibani in Damascus. The Syrian leadership is seeking to strengthen ties with Arab and Western leaders following the fall of Assad at the hands of Ahmed al-Sharaa's Sunni Islamist group, Hayat Tahrir al-Sham. It hopes a flow of aid and investments by Gulf neighbors following the lifting of economic sanctions would help it rebuild a state shattered by conflict.
