Fernandes mentioned that he had some interest from European clubs, but the talks did not progress to the point of making a concrete offer. He also stated that the offer from Al-Hilal was the most concrete one he received, but he didn't feel the need to leave Manchester United at the time.

Fernandes' manager spoke with him to reassure him that he was still part of the team's plans, which helped to alleviate any uncertainty surrounding his future.
