Bruno Fernandes' Al-Hilal transfer snub could come back to bite Man Utd as Saudi club's alternative target is revealed

BRUNO FERNANDES' snub of Al-Hilal could come back to bite Manchester United. The club captain rejected an eye-watering three-year tax-free deal worth £200million to move to Saudi Arabia 2 2 Fernandes, 30, has insisted that he wants to remain in Europe and play at the "top level". But his decision to remain at Old Trafford could result in a major blow to the club's transfer plans. Man United have been repeatedly linked with Nigerian striker Victor Osimhen over the last year. The striker spent last season on loan at Turkish side Galatasaray after falling out with Napoli over a failed transfer last summer. Al-Hilal could now make a swoop for Osimhen following their rejection by Fernandes. The Athletic have claimed that the Saudi Pro League outfit are set to "push ahead" with a deal for Osimhen. The club will have more wages available to offer the forward as they do not have to budget for Fernandes. Osimhen impressed during his loan spell in Turkey last season with 26 goals in 30 league appearances.

Bruno Fernandes enjoys dinner with Al-Hilal 'secret agent' Joao Cancelo as he faces Man Utd exit decision Fernandes is under contract at Old Trafford until the summer of 2027. Man United chiefs possess an option to extend the deal by a further 12 months. Manager Ruben Amorim has suggested that Fernandes still has a future at the club. He said: "I don't know for sure, nobody knows, but I don't think so. 'He is seeing us taking some actions to change all the things and I think that is all that he wants to stay. 'He's saying 'no' to a lot of things, but it shows that he wants to win. "He's really young, he's really good. He needs to be in the best league in the world.'

The career engineer named the new chief of defence

Air Chief Marshal Sir Richard Knighton has been selected as the next head of all three armed forces, succeeding Admiral Sir Tony Radakin as chief of the defence staff, The Independent understands. The appointment, expected to be officially announced soon, comes amid a period described as the most transformative for the Ministry of Defence (MoD) in decades. Sir Richard, a 56-year-old career engineer, is known for his financial acumen and experience in personnel reform, particularly within the RAF. His selection follows Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer 's pledge to make Britain "a battle-ready, armour-clad nation" through a strategic defence review that includes boosting army personnel to 100,000 and investing in new submarines, drones, and AI. An MoD spokesperson said that the appointment process is ongoing and any announcement will be made in the usual way.
