Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola has come out to say that new Manchester United signing, Bruno Fernandes was never a target for the Blues.
Pep said City is linked to several players every month but there was no truth in the Bruno to MCFC rumors that circulated.
According to him, the agents also have a way of involving uninterested clubs in reports to increase the price of the player but he can authoritatively state that his club did not try to sign the Portuguese.
He added that Bruno Fernandes is an exceptional player and that is why Mufc bought him.
His words, “I said many times it looks like we are linked with a thousand million players every month,”
“I don’t know if the agents want to create something to do that.
“But I think the club was not in talks with his agent about this player, but they link this guy and a thousand million more.”
“I don’t know what it means ‘my type of player’. I like defenders too and good headers.
“I don’t believe too much that these players are perfect for this team and manager. But I think he is an exceptional player and that is why Man United bought him.”
Nani had this to say on Bruno Fernandes recently, “As soon as I saw the news, the possibilities, I told him, ‘Don’t choose Manchester City, don’t choose any other team. You choose Man Utd!’”,
“After a couple of months, he moved to Manchester United and I was so, so happy because that advice and his choice were matching.
“It was beautiful because the moment I saw him play there, being the best player, scoring goals. It’s nice when it works like that.”
