Manchester United manager Erig Ten Hag has finally announced VERY SAD for Man U Captain Bruno Fernandes’ this evening after he was not in Manchester United Squad to face Crystal Palace
Bruno Fernandes’ incredible Manchester United record has come to an end when he was ruled out against Crystal Palace.
Manchester United start their struggling Premier League campaign at Selhurst Park.
And they will face Oliver Glasner’s side without Fernandes, who is missing from Erik ten Hag’s starting lineup.
This means that the Portuguese is out injured for the first time in his Manchester United career.
Since leaving Sporting CP, he has missed only five league games due to sickness or suspension.
The 29-year-old has made an amazing 230 appearances for Manchester United across all competitions since arriving in January 2020.
Furthermore, according to Transfermarkt, this is the first club game he has missed in his whole career due to injury.
Mason Mount replaces the star midfielder, while Casemiro gets the captain’s armband.
Fernandes has had a significant impact at Old Trafford, but he has spoken out about his future amid Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s projected squad makeover.
“I’m not thinking about anything other than the FA Cup and Euro 2024 with Portugal right now,” he stated.
Obviously, it does not depend solely on me, does it? A player must constantly want to be here, but also want to remain.
“At the present, I believe there is that on both sides.
“I’m not thinking too much about the future, not least since this season hasn’t been as good as I’d wanted, either individually or collectively, thus far. We still have the opportunity to win the cup at the end of the season. Following that, we have a big Euros event coming up.
“To be really honest, if I have to consider leaving the Premier League, it will be after the Euros, since nothing will be able to divert my attention from the FA Cup final and the Euros. There is nothing more essential than that.
