Ruben Amorim has stated Manchester United's obvious desire to keep captain and talisman Bruno Fernandes, amid rumoured interest from Saudi Arabia's Al Hilal.

Amid the interest from Al Hilal and exit rumors surrounding Fernandes, Man United head coach Ruben Amorim has made the club's intentions clear about their No.8. Al Hilal's interest and their huge potential offer led to uncertainties brewing about Fernandes' future at Old Trafford. Amorim, however, has candidly turned down the rumors.

Athletic have suffered injury blows of their own with both Nico and Inaki Williams ruled out, along with top scorer Oihan Sancet, while defender Dani Vivian is banned after his first-leg red card.
