Al Hilal are reportedly gearing up to make another ambitious move to acquire one of Cristiano Ronaldo's teammates in the summer.

According to reports, the Saudi giants are keen to bring in Ronaldo's ex-Manchester United and Portugal teammate Bruno Fernandes to the club and may go all out for him.

This follows an unsuccessful attempt during the January transfer window, where their bid failed to entice both the player and his current club.

Al Hilal's initial foray into attempting to secure Fernandes' was an unsuccessful one. Despite presenting a lucrative offer for the midfielder, their efforts were met with a lack of interest from Manchester United and Fernandes himself.

Fernandes has been instrumental for Manchester United this season, contributing significantly with 7 goals and 7 assists across various competitions. He continues to be a key part of the Man United setup, but a move in the summer can't be ruled out.

Al Hilal has been showcasing remarkable performance this season. They are currently at the summit of Saudi Pro League and are in the knockout stages of the AFC Champions League. The Saudi giants have some amazing players at the club, with Neymar being the biggest of them.

Can Al Hilal sign Bruno Fernandes?

Securing Fernandes would be a monumental acquisition for Al Hilal, considering his pivotal role at Manchester United and his current form. However, the challenge lies in convincing Manchester United to part ways with one of their key players, especially since Fernandes is under contract until 2026.

The coming summer transfer window is poised to be a critical period for both Al Hilal and Manchester United. The Red Devils are likely to play hardball on the player but given Al Hilal's financial prowess, a big-money move can't be ruled out.

In this case, Fernandes' wish to join the Saudi giants is going to be a pivotal factor. The Portugal international likes the Premier League and wants to continue at the elite level competitions, but a huge financial package may be too lucrative for him to turn down.
