Bruno Fernandes hints at possibly leaving Manchester United.
Portuguese midfielder, Bruno Fernandes signed with Manchester United in January 2020 and has undoubtedly been the club’s best player. With over 100 Premier League goals plus assists, he is the second biggest PL goal contributor since arriving at the league. With United’s new owners planning a major overhaul in the summer, Bruno Fernandes has hinted at the possibility of leaving the club. In an interview with DAZN, Bruno opened up on the prospect of leaving the club despite signing a new contract two years ago. He said, “if you want me to be honest, if I have to think about not continuing in the PL, it won’t be until after the Euros.” This has raised major doubts among Manchester United supporters concerning his future with the club.
