Bruno Fernandes Is Already Acting Like A Captain At Old Trafford

At long last, the supporters at Old Trafford witnessed Bruno Fernandes in action, operating for their side creditably after a long transfer speculations period.

The Portuguese has been linked with a deal to England since the start of the winter transfer window, with Sporting purposely trying to offload the playmaker seeing that as a means of relief to their financial crisis.

Nonetheless, the 25-year-old appeared in last night’s clash featuring the Red Devils going up against Nuno Espirito’s Wolves squad. The match however failed to showcase any goals from either teams with the scoreline being 0-0 till the final whistle.

Regardless, a major share of the Old Trafford faithful had their eyes glued the whole 90 minutes primarily to assess the impact of their fresh legs, Fernandes. And to the relief of the supporters, the Portugal international was a delight to watch in the entirety of the match.
