Bruno Fernandes is perfect for Manchester United because he 'doesn't care about mistakes', claims Nani as ex-Sporting Lisbon team-mate backs him to bring success to Old Trafford

Former Manchester United winger Nani has hailed his former Sporting Lisbon team-mate Bruno Fernandes after his superb start at Old Trafford and backed him to continue improving.

United signed Fernandes close to the transfer deadline in January 2020 and the 26-year-old has contributed 21 goals and 13 assists in his first 35 games, almost one goal involvement every match.

Few could have predicted such a seamless transition to the Premier League for the talismanic midfielder, but 112-cap Portugal international Nani backed him to make fans go crazy from the off.
