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 have received a boost in their rumoured interest to sign Wolverhampton Wanderers striker Raul Jimenez, according to reports.
After two successful transfer windows in succession with the summer signings of Daniel James, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Harry Maguire, followed by Bruno Fernandes and Odion Ighalo's arrivals in January, United are looking to continue to improve their squad when the window reopens again.
The club are looking to add three new players to their side, with midfield and the flanks being a priority area, and the likes of Jack Grealish, Jadon Sancho, James Maddison and Jude Bellingham are targets.
