Manager Ian Wright has insisted Arsenal will sign Bruno Fernandes “tomorrow” after convening Manchester United’s leaders. The Portuguese playmaker has claimed the Red Devils wanted him to leave in the summer, putting his future at Old Trafford in big doubt.<\/p>\n
However, United insist Fernandes remains key to their plans and have no intention of selling him. The Portuguese midfielder has now issued an ultimatum to his managers, saying he intends to remain at the club for as long as he is asked.<\/p>\n
As the spat continued, Arsenal icon Ian Wright shared his thoughts, claiming the Gunners would snap up Fernandes if he left United.<\/p>\n
“Bruno’s quote reminds me of Man Utd’s indecision. That’s why someone came in to replace Bruno Fernandes last summer… You were the one who stopped it.<\/p>\n
“He didn’t want to go. Bruno is basically saying the club is gone. ‘It’s up to you whether you want to leave.’ That’s not something you want to hear when you’re basically the only person supporting the club.”<\/p>\n

“You want clubs to say, ‘You’re not going anywhere, you’re an important part of this.’ But Manchester United didn’t do that.<\/p>\n
“They gave him a choice and said, ‘You can go if you want.’ What does that say to him? I’m going to take him tomorrow.”<\/p>\n
Wright’s comments come after Fernandes shared his stance on his exit from Old Trafford across the ranks. He said this while on international duty earlier this year. “I could have left like a lot of people and said, ‘I want to quit, I don’t want to train, I just want to quit for 20 or 30 million euros and they’ll pay me more over there,'” he said. But I didn’t do that. I was never in a position to do that because I felt the same empathy and love that I had for the club.<\/p>\n

“But there comes a point when money is more important to them than anything else. The club wanted me to leave, that’s what I think in my head. I told the managers about this, but I don’t think they had the courage to make that decision.”<\/p>\n
“I decided to stay because of family reasons, but also because I genuinely liked the club. I also had a conversation with the manager, and I decided to stay. But from the club’s perspective, I felt a little bit like, ‘If you leave, it wouldn’t be that bad for us.'” It hurt a lot.<\/p>\n
“Rather than hurt, it makes me sad because I’m not the kind of player that they criticize. I’m always ready, I always play, good or bad. I’m giving my all. And when you look at the situation around you, there are players who don’t value the club as much and don’t protect the club as much… It makes you sad.”<\/p>\n
