"The Portugal international has been a world class performer for Man Utd down the years, and it would be a big blow to lose him to another major European side. Fernandes is said to be on Bayern's radar and a report from Fichajes claims he's keen to leave after a difficult time at Old Trafford. Although United don't want to let Fernandes go, they could be ready to consider negotiating for around 70m."
"No one can say Fernandes hasn't given his absolute all to United during his time with the club, with the former Sporting Lisbon man scoring 100 goals in 298 appearances in all competitions. No other United player has really come close to that kind of consistency in recent times, but of course Fernandes hasn't been able to turn the team's fortunes around all on his own."
"The problem for MUFC is that it's going to be a huge challenge finding someone who can contribute what Fernandes has. There are plenty of top players out there, of course, but it's debatable how much they'll now be keen to take a risk by moving to Old Trafford. Fernandes is a good example of someone who's arguably wasted his peak years at this under-achieving club, and others might not be willing to do the same."
Bruno Fernandes is a target for Bayern Munich and could move for around €70m. The Portugal international will turn 32 next season and has had a difficult time at Old Trafford. He has scored 100 goals in 298 appearances in all competitions and has consistently performed at a high level for Manchester United. United are reluctant to sell but could consider negotiating for the fee. Allowing Fernandes to move would let him pursue major silverware at a top club. Replacing his contributions will be a huge challenge, and many players may hesitate to join an under-achieving United.
