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 duo Mason Mount and Rasmus Hojlund trained with the main group at Carrington on Wednesday in preparation for Saturday's Premier League clash with Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
Mount, who has missed each of United's last three matches with a muscle issue, was understood to have returned to first-team training earlier this week.
The Manchester Evening News, on Monday, reported that the former Chelsea man could return from his spell on the sidelines sooner than originally anticipated.
The midfielder, 25, started each of United's opening three competitive fixtures this season, but was forced off in the 2-1 defeat at Brighton & Hove Albion last month.
