Bruno Miguel Borges Fernandes (born 8 September 1994) is a Portuguese footballer who plays for Primeira Liga club Sporting CP and the Portugal national team as a midfielder. Fernandes started his career at Serie B side Novara Calcio and soon featured for Udinese and Sampdoria in Serie A.
In 2017, he signed with Sporting CP where he established himself as one of the best players in the Primeira Liga. He was named the LPFP Primeira Liga Player of the Year in both 2017–18 and 2018–19. In the latter season, he also helped Sporting win the Taça de Portugal. A senior international since 2017, Fernandes represented Portugal at the 2016 Summer Olympics and 2018 FIFA World Cup.
Manchester United full-back Diogo Dalot has reportedly been driving new signing Bruno Fernandes to training every day as the midfielder continues to settle in.
The 25-year-old, who was signed from Sporting Lisbon in January, has had an impressive start to life in England, scoring three times and creating two assists in his first seven games.
He has also been praised for his leadership skills off the pitch, and looks set to become one of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side's most important figures.
According to The Times , Fernandes' fellow Portuguese teammate Dalot has been key in helping the player adjust to life in England, and has been giving him a lift from Cheshire to United's training centre in Carrington every day.
