"Manchester United” captain Bruno Fernandes has refused to extend his contract with the club.

BBC reports that the 32-year-old Portuguese recently rejected the club’s second offer to extend his contract, which is set to expire at the end of this season. However, "United” have the option to extend it for another year.

There is little doubt that "Man Utd” will exercise this option, but the club would prefer to sign a new contract with its captain immediately.

If the "Red Devils” fail to reach an agreement with the Portuguese player and do not activate the one-year extension by January 1, Fernandes will be able to begin negotiations with foreign clubs.

It is also noted that Fernandes’ decision could be heavily influenced by his first few weeks working with the new manager, Mauricio Pochettino.
