Bruno Fernandes makes transfer admission after turning down move to Saudi Arabia and opting to stay at Man United

Bruno Fernandes has made an admission regarding the transfer speculation that surrounded his future earlier this summer before he opted to committ his future to Manchester United. Fernandes, 30, was subject to an enormous £200million bid from Saudi Pro League side Al-Hilal - who were prepared to offer the Portuguese midfielder a tax-free contract in the region of £700,000-a-week plus bonuses. Now, he has made a frank statement about why decided to stay in Manchester despite the offer of a more lucrative move elsewhere. Speaking to Sky Sports, he said: 'I haven't fulfilled my dreams here yet. 'I think I can still give something to the club. I think I'm still in a position where I'm helpful so the thing for me is that I will be here until the club decides that ''Bruno, it's time to go''. 'Obviously, I know it was tough on the club to decide that because it was a big amount of money that the club hasn't got probably since Cristiano [Ronaldo] left, he was the last one where they got so much money for a player. Al-Hilal were prepared to meet any financial demand that Fernandes wanted but his desire to stay at the highest level overruled all. 'It was a very ambitious proposal,' he added. 'The president was a fantastic person. We never discussed the amount [initially]. With my agent? Of course. 'Then, I spoke to my wife and family, and she asked me what my personal goals were in my career. She was someone who always supported me a lot. 'It was an easy move, even at a family level. I had Joao Cancelo there, my children are used to playing with him in the national team, we have a great friendship. 'But I want to maintain myself at the highest level, playing in the big competitions, and I feel capable of it.' Fernandes will look to get things off to a winning start for United on Sunday, when they welcome Arsenal to Old Trafford in their Premier League opener. The Red Devils have been boosted in attack by the arrivals of both Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo. They have also been linked with Brighton midfielder Carlos Baleba as Ruben Amorim looks to add further reinforcements before the window shuts on September 1. .
