Manchester United captain, Bruno Fernandes, has given the Premier League club two conditions to stay beyond this summer.

Last year, Fernandes was heavily linked with a move to Saudi Arabia, with United reportedly rejecting a £100m offer.

But the Portugal midfielder is considering his future at Old Trafford as he approaches his 32nd birthday.

United are ready to table a £400,000-a-week deal for Fernandes, but he is eager about other things.

The first condition is that the Red Devils play European football, the UK Mirror reports.

The team is currently in third place with 51 points.

Fernandes also wants the club to appoint Michael Carrick on a permanent basis, after his short-term deal expires in June.

“It was an unfortunate situation as we thought we were going to go away with a point,” Ogunbote told Plateau United’s media team.

“Toward the end of the game, we lost due to a lapse in concentration, which cost us the goal, but nevertheless, we will still go back to winning ways.”
