Bruno Fernandes To Remain A Red Devil Until 2027

Fernandes has been at Manchester United since January 2020 when he joined from Sporting Lisbon.

Last summer he replaced Harry Maguire as club captain on a permanent basis.

Since arriving at Old Trafford, the 29-year-old has made 234 appearances across all competitions, scoring 79 goals and assisting 67 times.

Fernandes has won the FA Cup and Carabao Cup in his time at the club.

After signing his new deal, he said: "Everybody knows the passion I have for Manchester United. I understand the responsibility and significance of wearing this shirt, and the levels of dedication and desire required to represent this incredible club.

"I have had so many special moments here already; hearing my name sung from the Stretford End, scoring a hat-trick against Leeds, leading the team out at Old Trafford on European nights and lifting trophies at Wembley. But I wouldn't have signed this contract if I didn't believe that my best moments in a United shirt are still to come.

"From my discussions with the football leadership and manager, it is clear how determined everyone is to fight for major trophies in the years ahead. I can see how positive the future is going to be and I am relishing leading this team forward."

Manchester United kick-start their Premier League campaign at home to Fulham on Friday.
