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.
Gary Neville believes Bruno Fernandes 'goes over the top' with his behavior on the football pitch as the Manchester United legend reiterated his criticism of the midfielder.
Fernandes has come in for flak for his expressive body language several times since joining United in January 2020 but things came to a head during the 7-0 defeat to Liverpool when he was seen waving his arms in frustration toward teammates and putting his hands on a linesman.
Neville was on commentary for the match and wasn't happy with what he was seeing. At one of the many kick-offs in the second half, Neville even suggested that Fernandes had asked to be taken off judging from his body language.
Fernandes moved to defend himself in a recent interview with Sky Sports, saying a lot of the criticism he received for the Anfield mauling was 'complete lies.' READ MORE: 'I've had plenty of injuries in my time, but by far the worst was in my head' "I never try to be disrespectful with anyone.
