Bruno Fernandes enjoys dinner with Al-Hilal ‘secret agent’ Joao Cancelo as he faces Man Utd exit decision

FANS reckon Bruno Fernandes is “leaving breadcrumbs” as clues after the Manchester United skipper dined with Al-Hilal “secret agent” Joao Cancelo.

Fernandes‘ agent has already held “productive” talks with the Saudis as they press for a £100million transfer.

And now the Red Devils‘ star midfielder, 30, has met with Al-Hilal‘s former Manchester City full-back Cancelo.

A clip of the Portugal pals at a group meal in a restaurant, has sent speculation soaring that a deal could be sorted within days.

Cancelo was 31 last Tuesday – and a birthday cake with blazing candles was presented to him at the eatery.

An X account for Al-Hilal fans shared a video from the meal – and cheekily suggested Cancelo was trying to talk the Red Devils hero into joining his team.

The post read: “Bruno Fernandes with Cancelo today… Can Cancelo do it? “

One fan responded: “Yes, it’s his Portugal teammate but given all the rumours and all the speculation about his future this can’t be a pure coincidence.

“Of course they discussed his possible move to Al-Hilal. Bruno is leaving breadcrumbs for us. First the quote yesterday now this. “

That “quote” is thought to be a mysterious message Fernandes posted on his Instagram story.

It translated in English to: “If you tried and failed, congratulations! There are people who don’t even try.”

Some fans believe “in the context” of Al-Hilal’s interest, those words means Fernandes WILL be leaving Old Trafford.

But nothing is certain yet.

And when the dining clip went up on social media, many fans warned against reading too much into it.

One wrote: “Friends go out for dinner together.”

And another added: “They are international teammates enjoying off season.”

A third posted: “So this video could mean nothing or it could be everything.”

And although some viewers pointed out it was Cancelo’s birthday week, they suggested it was inevitable a Fernandes transfer was one topic.

Such verdicts included: “One can be certain that Bruno considering Al Hilal’s offer means talking to all his Portuguese buddies in Saudi to assess opinions on things like the standard of the game, his support system if he goes there etc. “
