Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandez says he could leave the club last summer.
The 30 -year -old was the United champion on Thursday night, where he scored the Hati trilogy, where they beat Real Sociedad to move to the quarter -finals of the European League with Lyon.
It was also distinguished by the praise by the co -owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe in an interview with the BBC Sport on Monday.
But Fernandez said that there was an offer to sign him in the summer, and he had conversations with the club about his future.
“I sat with the club because I had an offer to leave,” he said. “We talked about the possibility of leaving the club or staying.
“They said what they wanted from me. I just asked if they still see me as part of the club's future or not. I spoke at that time with” Erik “Ten Hag too.
“It was very clear with me, the club was very clear with me, as they thought I would be a large part of this reconstruction. I thought we could be successful.”
Portugal now has 15 goals this season. None of his teammates obtained dual personalities.
In a campaign that was bad enough for United, which was in the fourteenth place in the Premier League and on the verge of its worst local campaign since the 1973-1974 landing season, it is not difficult to imagine the conflict that they would have got with Fernandez in the summer, where there was a different turn in the interest of Bayern Monich from among others.
After ten Ajaj was dismissed in October, Fernandez's colleague, his compatriot Robin Amorim, was as an alternative – but the dark situation did not improve.
Last month, former captain Roy Ken Fernandez criticized: “Talent is not enough” and that he was not a “fighter”.
Even Amorim, in the wake of the European League exploits in Fernandez, said that his captain needs to “trust” his team mates.
“Roy Kane was a great captain of the club, one of what everyone says,” said Fernandez.
“I haven't had the opportunity to see much of it, in the past few years, but he was a great player who won everything to the club. He has great respect from everyone and has respect.
“He must give his opinion on a program and this is what he thinks.
“I don't want to copy anyone. I try to be the best captain I can for my teammates and help everyone in the best way I know.”
