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 ace Bruno Fernandes has played down suggestions that his drop off in form last season was caused by playing alongside Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ronaldo, who scored his first goal of the season in United's 2-0 win over FC Sheriff in the Europa League last week, returned to Old Trafford from Juventus last summer.
Despite the Reds' collective struggles last season, the 37-year-old netted an impressive 24 goals in all competitions. Fernandes, by contrast, scored an underwhelming ten goals in comparison to the 28 he netted during the 2020/21 campaign.
