Manchester United captain B Fee rejected a generous offer from Saudi Arabia this summer and announced that he would stay in Old Trafford. Red Magic legend Ferdinand said he admires B Fee very much.

Ferdinand said: "I saw what loyalty is. Although the word is often mentioned, we rarely really see it from the perspective of clubs and players. I know football is a business now, but through Bruno I see that kind of pure things. He feels that he has an unfinished career at Manchester United, and there are many goals to be achieved, and Manchester United is also very rewarded and fans love him.'

"I think Bruno wants to give back to everything he has got, so I only have respect for his decision. If Bruno chooses to leave, I can fully understand it. But he chose to stay, which I think not only proves his character, but also another reason why the coaches are assured of letting him be the captain. If I were Bruno, I felt it would be hard for me to say no to that offer, I had to tell the truth. ”

Ferdinand also talked about the career aid agency he recently launched in partnership with Talking Futures, aiming to help young people and their parents establish better communication in future planning. He said: “I think this is to encourage families to participate more in education issues, especially parents.

"I think we are comfortable talking about many topics, such as football. We often talk to our children in the living room or dining table, but finding common ground in education can sometimes be difficult, and I have a deep understanding of it myself. Therefore, a platform like this is definitely a good entry point to start discussing future life plans, such as education direction, where do you plan to develop? What options are you considering?

"This is a great channel for parents to get involved, tell the children, 'Come on, let's talk', and then guide them on the right path, while giving them a certain degree of autonomy. How great it would be if I had such an opportunity when I was young, although I was lucky enough to choose football as my career. ”
