Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes has agreed to join Arsenal on a five-year deal, with the English Premier League club paying £125 million ($148 million) in transfer fees. The Portuguese playmaker is expected to make his debut for Arsenal against Crystal Palace on Sunday.
Fernandes, who was born in Portugal but raised in Brazil, joined Manchester United from Sporting CP in 2018 and has made over 150 appearances for the club, scoring 24 goals and providing 67 assists. He is known for his creativity, vision and ability to score important goals, making him a valuable asset to any team he plays for.
Arsenal have been linked with Fernandes for some time now, and the signing of the player marks another major addition to their squad ahead of the upcoming season. The Gunners will be hoping that Fernandes can help them challenge for the Premier League title this season, as well as compete in the Champions League.
The move to Arsenal is likely to come as a shock to many fans of Manchester United, who had hoped that Fernandes would remain at Old Trafford for the foreseeable future. However, it seems that the decision to sell Fernandes was not made lightly, and the player's value was clearly seen as too high for Manchester United to justify keeping him on their books.
Overall, the arrival of Bruno Fernandes at Arsenal is sure to bring much excitement and potential success to the club, and it will be interesting to see how he performs during the upcoming season.
