According to The Independent, Bayern Munich is confident in luring Fernandes to the Bundesliga, taking advantage of his dissatisfaction with the current situation at Old Trafford. Fernandes, aged 29, is reportedly considering his future at United, driven by a desire to compete for major trophies while in his prime, and Bayern believes they can convince him to embrace a new challenge.

The report suggests that United’s leadership would be willing to negotiate Fernandes’s transfer, aiming to adhere to Profit and Sustainability Rule regulations and initiate a squad overhaul. This potential move could also influence manager Thomas Tuchel’s decision to stay at Bayern, as he has expressed a need for additional creative options should he continue his tenure in the upcoming season.

The possibility of Fernandes teaming up with Kane adds another layer of intrigue to Bayern’s transfer strategies. Kane, who has been prolific in Germany with 44 goals in 45 appearances, could potentially elevate his scoring prowess with Fernandes’s creativity in the mix.

Furthermore, Fernandes has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia, with Al-Nassr, Al-Hilal, and Al-Ittihad all expressing interest in his services.

United reportedly opposed the “anchoring rule” in the Premier League, which would have restricted their spending based on the income of bottom clubs, signaling their preparation for an extensive transfer window that could involve numerous arrivals and departures.

Therefore, the prospect of Fernandes joining Bayern presents an appealing opportunity for all involved parties. Fernandes seeks silverware, United aims to sell to fund their transfer ambitions, and Bayern looks to bolster their squad for the upcoming season. However, Bayern may need to invest significantly in the midfielder, who has been among United’s standout performers in a largely disappointing campaign that sees them in eighth place in the Premier League standings.
