  "summary": "Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has rejected a second contract offer from the club, according to sources. The Portuguese midfielder, who joined United from Sporting in 2020, is out of contract at the end of the season but the club has the option to trigger a 12-month extension until 2028. United appears keen to avoid this eventuality by extending Fernandes' existing deal, but talks have reportedly failed. If no agreement is reached before January, the midfielder could sign a pre-contract agreement with a foreign club. The news comes amid significant upheaval at the club, with long-time coach Michael Carrick recently sacked.",
