Interesting facts about Bruno Fernandes, New Red Devils Recruitment

By db-admin

DBasia.news –  Manchester United officially announces their new recruit, Bruno Fernandes.  The Red Devils brought the young player from Sporting Lisbon with a price of 55 million euros plus another bonus with a duration of five years.

 Bruno Fernandes has long been targeted by Manchester United since last summer.  But at that time Fernandes did not leave Sporting and now the Red Devils directed by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer successfully completed the transfer.  Fernandes promised to give everything to United.

 “My love for Manchester United really started when I used to watch Cristiano Ronaldo play and since then I have been a big fan of this great club,” said Bruno Fernandes on the club’s official website.

 “For me now playing for Manchester United feels great, I have worked hard to get to this moment and I can promise fans that I will give everything to the badge to help bring us more success and trophy.”

 The injuries of Scott McTominay and Paul Pogba were the reason Man United brought in Bruno Fernandes.  Here are five interesting things or facts about Bruno Fernandes by BolaSkor.com:

 1. Goal Scorer and Assessor

 Bruno Fernandes is considered to be a solution for Man United in terms of goals and assists from midfield.  Fernandes is currently attracting attention again after scoring 38 goals and 28 assists last season with Sporting Lisbon.

 Bruno Fernandes is one of the most prolific midfielders in Europe and Man United needs him to add variety to play from midfield.

 2. Good Individual Quality

 Fernandes has individual abilities that appeal to Man United.  As an attacking midfielder, he has advantages in dribbling, passing, and finishing.  Long-distance kick that became Fernandes’s mainstay is also considered to be able to threaten the opponent’s goal.

 3. Fill in the Attacking Midfielder Position

 Manchester United are in trouble due to lack of attacking midfielders after Paul Pogba and Scott McTominay suffered long injuries.

 Losing these two players for a long time is clearly not ideal for the club.  Man United hopes the presence of Bruno Fernandes can fill the position of attacking midfielder, whether it’s in a 4-3-3- or 4-2-3-1 tactic.

 4. Played at Sampdoria

 Still 25 years old, Bruno Fernandes has enough experience playing at the club level.  Two years with Sporting, Bruno previously also defended Udinese (2013-2016) and Sampdoria (2016-17).  Although the culture of playing Italy and England is different, Bruno is predicted to be able to adapt well in England.

 5. Cheaper than James Maddison

 Manchester United has two choices to fill the position of attacking midfielder namely James Maddison from Leicester City and Bruno Fernandes.  Manchester United offered Jesse Lingard a barter and some money to get Maddison, while to get Bruno Fernandes, the funds spent were around Rp 1 trillion.
