MANCHESTER, ENGLAND - JANUARY 19: Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes during the Premier League match between Manchester United FC and Brighton & Hove Albion FC at Old Trafford on January 19, 2025 in Manchester, England.

But Amorim leapt to Fernandes’ defence on Friday even though he acknowledged that the player can sometimes get under people’s skin. Asked about Keane’s comments, he said: ‘I heard about that, I have a differen...

Manchester United have three transfer options to fund January rescue act

It has been five years since Manchester United spent money on a permanent signing in the January transfer window, and the new football structure at Old Trafford will aim to keep the chequebook closed again this winter. Bruno Fernandes was the last mid-season transfer at Old Trafford in January 2020, and if you were making a case for business in that window, you would certainly have Fernandes front and centre of your proposal. He is United's best signing of the last decade and has proved outstanding value for money at £47m. Since then, United have done all their major business in the summer, as the most well-run clubs always aim to do. The winter window in Erik ten Hag's first season was notable for some stop-gap loan deals, in Jack Butland, Marcel Sabitzer and Wout Weghorst. Ralf Rangnick ...

Bruno Fernandes sends message to Nottingham Forest star after shock Liverpool win

Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes has sent a message to former teammate Anthony Elanga after he made a telling impact off the bench at Anfield to help inflict a first defeat on new Liverpool head coach Arne Slot. Ex-Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi scored the winning goal in the game but Elanga was another to impress on the day for the visiting team. Liverpool had the vast majority of the possession but couldn't find a way through to goal, only then to be punished at the other end on the counter-attack. "That assist man," Fernandes commented on an Instagram post that Elanga shared following the Nottingham Forest victory. It was accompanied by a clapping hands emoji. Liverpool needs to bounce back quickly with matches against AC Milan and Bournemouth coming up this week in the ...
