Al Hilal given him till middle of next week to decide but apparently are increasingly confident he's going to accept.
Rumoured to be 750k a week in wages and £100m transfer fee for United.
If true, £100m for a player in his 30's is obviously a great deal for us. However on the flip side he's also our talisman and captain and we are truly terrible at spending money. 😂
Feels like this could be it. Been a great player for us in a truly awful era. He deserved to play with better players quite frankly or players who care as much as he does. The club have badly let him down to such an extent I wouldn't begrudge him taking the mega money.
Bruno out and Cunha and Delap in doesn't excite me that much though I have to say. 2 younger players for the price of one, true, but not confident either will do as well for us as Bruno has.
Bruno gone?

While it could be a good move if reinvested well don't you actually just need some of that money not for transfers? Only so many tea ladies you can sack

I don't want Bruno to go but that would be big money to turn down if true. It could fund quite a few new players for next season. It's a shame he was at the club during its lowest ebb in living memory though. He deserved better really.
You never know though. Quite a few said that a few fan favourites would have to leave and if it's Bruno then that massive fee could be the greatest gift he'll give to the club if it's invested well.

The rumours I saw about this seemed pretty poor, have more respected journalists said something?
I just can’t see Bruno going there but I understand why a player would be tempted to move for 750k a week, it’s insane money.

Throw in that it’s tax free and it becomes 5-6x his current take home it becomes VERY tempting.

He doesn’t strike me as the sort of player to make this move.
Then again, I think anyone playing in this team might lose faith in trying to forge a credible career.

I called this the other day. Will be sad to see him go but we kinda ruined his prime years so he deserves to go and make some huge money before he retires.
Let’s hope we use the money wisely (lol)

Bruno and Cunha won’t work well together anyway.
You can only afford one disinterested player walking about with their hands in their pockets all match.

Facking hell, all of the smoothbrains are out this evening.

Bruno will be 31 in september, I'd say cash in on him now with the crazy money beeing offered..
He will sooner or later lose to his age, and we need to redevelop ourselves with younger players. Cunha/Mount would be more logic to focus on going forward, both with age on their side.

‘Make some huge money’
He currently makes about £16 million per year.
How much money does one person need?

Bruno leaving is the inflection point. Everyone should be up. Maguire? Gone. Casemiro? Gone. Shaw? Thanks for the service. If we can squeeze in Onana and Dalot? Then we know we are serious about an actual revolution. They are all overpaid overpriced rubbish with no skin in the game.

100m?
You'd be stoopid to turn that down, especially in view of your financial problems.
