Bruno Fernandes is what Manchester United have been missing 'in the last few years', claims former boss Sir Alex Ferguson... as he hails the 'fantastic' Manchester United midfielder

Bruno Fernandes is exactly the kind of player Manchester United have been missing in the last few years, according to legendary former manager Sir Alex Ferguson.

The attacking midfielder, 26, has enjoyed a superb second season at Old Trafford, scoring an astonishing 28 goals and laying on 18 assists across 57 matches in all competitions this campaign, fully justifying his £65million transfer in January 2020.

And Ferguson told BBC Radio Manchester that the 27-cap Portuguese international's confidence, creativity and composure meant he represents exactly what the Red Devils have needed in recent years.
