Could Man Utd replace Fernandes with Guimaraes? Michael Owen offers transfer window advice to Red Devils & Newcastle"},"content":{"rendered":"

Newcastle have been quick to quash that speculation<\/a>, but rumours rarely die down quickly. With that in mind, could a couple of Brunos form part of movement at two Uniteds<\/a> in the summer of 2026?<\/p>\n

When that question was put to Owen, the Premier League title winner – speaking exclusively with GOAL as the official UK ambassador for Casino.org, a trusted comparison website highlighting the best online casinos for UK players<\/a> – said: \u201cIt’s a really interesting one with Bruno Fernandes at Manchester United because you get to a stage in his career whereby you could probably still command a lot of money, but he is not a spring chick anymore, is he? However, he is so good that part of you, if I was on the Manchester United hierarchy, I’d be just thinking: \u2018Do you know what, yes, we can recoup X amount of millions, but he is so good and so important to us\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd now, in this phase where Manchester United are actually looking like they’re coming back and you would think that this momentum is probably only going to grow, I would probably do everything I can to keep him and just let him play out his years in a red shirt.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe’s as good as anything in the Premier League, I think. He was head and shoulders above every Manchester United player for years and years. And that was when the team was struggling – how he kept his levels. But now the team are doing really well. he’s doing even better. And I just think without him, you’re not back to square one, but without him, you’re severely hurting the team.<\/p>\n

\u201cSomeone like Casemiro is going to leave and you’re going to do really well to replace a player like that. There will be others that leave, but they are replaceable. I just don’t think Bruno Fernandes is.<\/p>\n

\u201cI’m a huge admirer of Bruno Guimaraes but Fernandes is different. Fernandes, you just don’t find them in world football. It’s a big decision for Manchester United. It’s a big decision for Bruno himself. Let’s not just think that the club get all the say here. But if it was me, I would probably bite the bullet. I think sod the value now, the value to us in terms of him and the team for another three or four years is far greater than grabbing 100 million. I would probably keep him.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Newcastle have been quick to quash that speculation, but rumours rarely die down quickly.
