Saudi Pro League club Al-Hilal are planning a third meeting with Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes, according to a new report.
The club, who currently sit second in the Saudi Pro League and are the home of players such as Joao Cancelo and Aleksandr Mitrovic, are keen to convince the midfielder of pastures new.
Fernandes has been crucial for Manchester United this season, scoring 19 goals and providing 19 assists across all competitions.

With this summer set to provide Ruben Amorim with his first real chance to mould the United squad to his specifications, the Portuguese coach is reluctant to let his countryman and key player go.
“We want to keep the best players – and Bruno is clearly one of the top players in the world”, Amorim said before United’s Europa League semi-final second leg victory over Athletic Club.

In their last meeting, Al-Hilal were rebuffed by representatives of the midfielder, after setting a lucrative three-year contract on the table.
But according to The Mirror, transfer chiefs at Al-Hilal are refusing to give up, and are set for a third meeting with the player’s agent.
The club based in Riyadh are willing to show considerable flexibility on potential wage demands in the hopes of turning Fernandes’ head.
Manchester United will hope considerations from the club captain, if any, wait until the end of the season.
After beating Athletic Club, the Red Devils have set up a Europa League final clash against Tottenham Hotspur and will certainly need their star midfielder fully focused if they are to end a disappointing season with European glory.
