Bruno Fernandez s "crime partner" has informed the team: Will not return next season

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandez once called Nelson Semedo his "criminal partner", and the defender whose contract with Wolves expired is now a free agent, and his future destination has attracted attention.

Wolves coach Vittor Pereira confirmed that 31-year-old Semedo has made it clear that he "want to find a new challenge." The former Barcelona defender has played for Wolves for five years and rejected the team's proposal for a renewal after his contract expired last month.

Pereira admitted: "I have been communicating frankly with Semedo. He said that after five years with Wolves, it may be time to change the environment, I can understand. But the club cannot wait infinitely. We have provided him with a generous contract. Since he has decided, it is time to find an alternative."

Semedo and Fernandez are the focus of the transfer market - the two are Portuguese internationals. After Portugal won the UEFA European League championship in June this year, Semedo posted a celebration photo on Instagram. Fernandez commented: "My criminal partner", which shows that his personal relationship is very close. Manchester United has previously had an affair with Semedo. If they can sign this free agent, they can not only strengthen the right-back position, but also use his tacit understanding with Fernandez to enhance team cohesion.

It is worth mentioning that Wolves have lost many core players this summer: Mattus Cunnia joins Manchester United for £62.5 million, Rayan Ait Nuri transfers to Manchester City for £31 million, and if Semedo leaves the team, it will be the team's third "big fish" to leave.

Currently, Wolves only sign winger Fair Lopez and forward Jorgen Strand Larson, who will be on loan, turn permanent. Pereira emphasized: "New players must be added as soon as possible, otherwise it will be difficult to compete with Manchester City and Arsenal next season, and even the newly promoted players are investing heavily."
