Since his joining in January, Bruno Fernandes is making the headlines for every good reason with Manchester United. His performance is becoming better and better every day.
The Portuguese midfielder has contributed 22 goals and 14 assists in his first 38 games for Manchester United. He is now one of the best creators in the Premier League along with Manchester City’s Kevin De Bruyne and Liverpool’s Mohammad Salah.
Bruno Fernandes has played a valuable part in Manchester United’s comeback against West Ham United from 1-0 down to a 1-3 win in the second half.
Bruno came into the field at half time replacing Donny Van De Beek and created 8 chances from open play against West Ham United, the most any player has created in a Premier League game this season. He provided the assist to Paul Pogba’s equalizer.
Manchester United is considering to reward Bruno Fernandes for his performance since his joining. According to the report of ‘The Mirror’, Manchester United will double the wage of Bruno Fernandes.
Mirror claims, “Manchester United are set to reward Bruno Fernandes with a new double-your-money contract worth £200,000-a-week. His brilliant performances at Old Trafford have put Spanish giants Real Madrid and Barcelona on alert.”
“Fernandes is just 11 months into a four-and-a-half-year deal he signed when he moved to Manchester. And the agreement has the option of a further 12 months.”
“But United want to keep the Portuguese international happy as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer continues to rebuild a team that has now gone seven years without the Premier League title.”
“Fernandes’ salary is at the same level as Jesse Lingard and No 2 keeper Dean Henderson.”
Manchester United team certainly knows Bruno’s quality very well as he has been an influential figure at Old Trafford. He is surely one of the best midfielders in the league.
