Bruno Fernandes is and will remain Manchester United’s most important player – also this season. The captain himself has put in 5 goals and delivered 7 assists in 16 Premier League games. In the past year, however, the Portuguese has been heavily linked to an exit in order to rake in a lot of money in the “Ronaldo League”. Now the United captain talks about what actually happened this summer.
In an interview with Portuguese Canal 11, it emerges that it was the Manchester United management who actively worked to get the captain to change clubs.

“The club wanted me to go, that’s my experience. I said this to the directors, but I don’t think they had the courage to make that decision, because the manager wanted me. If I had said I wanted to go, they would have let me go,” Fernandes begins in the interview.
Fernandes stayed, but does not hold back on the fact that it was difficult to experience that the club he has given everything for since 2020, wanted to get rid of him.
“It hurts me a lot. More than hurting, it makes me sad. I could have left like many others do and said: ‘I want to go, I don’t want to train’. But I never did,” says the United captain.
