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.
Bruno Fernandes has revealed he never takes up Erik ten Hag’s offer of a rest at Manchester United, explaining how he knows the day will come when he won’t be given the choice.
The playmaker has never missed a Reds match through injury, only ever being ruled out through yellow card suspensions or illness.
Ten Hag has at times decided to rest the 28-year-old, but seemingly not by the player’s own choice. Speaking to CM Sport while on international duty with Portugal, Fernandes explained why he never opts for the bench when Ten Hag asks if he wants a breather.
He said: “It was a childhood dream to play for Manchester United and whenever the manager asks me if I want to rest, I say I’m always ready to play.
