Bruno Fernandes transfer plan would reshape Galatasaray midfield

Published on: 15 November 2026

Galatasaray are interested in Manchester United and Portugal midfielder Bruno Fernandes, according to reports from Turkish outlet Sporx.

The Istanbul club are preparing to attempt to sign the 32-year-old, whose contract with Manchester United runs until next summer. Fernandes and the Premier League club have not yet reached an agreement over an extension.

A move to Galatasaray would also affect the role of Russian midfielder Alexey Batrakov. Fernandes would operate as the attacking midfielder, while Batrakov would move into an “eight” position in the team’s midfield.

The proposed change would allow both players to be included in the starting line-up.
