Bruno Fernandes will not sign Manchester United contract extension until teammate signs new deal

Bruno Fernandes is reportedly not willing to commit himself to a new contract with Manchester United until Paul Pogba has done the same. The Portuguese midfielder has enjoyed an amazing start to his career at Old Trafford and, despite having a contract that runs until 2025 – plus the option for a further year – United bosses have been keen to tie him down to a new bumper deal. However, according to The Sun, the 26-year-old’s hesitancy revolves around the uncertain future of Pogba, whose current contract expire in June next year when he will be able to leave Old Trafford on a free transfer. United triggered a one-year extension clause back in October of last year but have made no progress over a long-term extension, with the player’s agent, Mino Raiola, having claimed on several occasions that Pogba is keen for a new challenge. But Fernandes sees Pogba – who has enjoyed an excellent campaign this season – as absolutely crucial to the club’s future and particularly their chances of closing the gap to Manchester City. He is watching Pogba’s situation very carefully and does not want to enter into talks until he has been given assurances over his teammate’s future.
