The transfer mill is churning once again, with AL Ittihad believed to be lining up a move for Bruno Fernandes, the midfielder from Man Utd. Sources close to the club suggest they are exploring options to reinforce their squad ahead of the run-in. AL Ittihad remain optimistic, but the deal is not without hurdles. Al Hilal and AL Nassr continue to monitor developments and could yet re-enter the race if negotiations stall or valuation gaps remain unresolved. So far this season, AL Ittihad are steady at both ends (2.5 goals scored per game, 1.5 goals conceded per game). The role for Bruno Fernandes would be to keep that balance while lifting performances across the pitch. Man Utd have recently been linked with Andrey Nascimento dos Santos, Morgan Rogers and Adrien Rabiot while AL Ittihad have had no rumoured targets. Stay tuned for more details as the story develops.
