Manchester United completed the signing of Bruno Fernandes last month from Sporting Lisbon and the Portugal international is already turning heads at Old Trafford.
The stylish midfielder made his debut against Wolverhampton Wanderers last time out and was voted as man of the match.
Although he is currently out injured, one of the players that will be expected to form a long lasting partnership with Burno Fernandes is Scott McTominay and the Scotsman has disclosed to the club’s media team that he is looking forward to beginning that partnership soonest.
While in training during the winter break, Scott McTominay granted an exclusive interview to Manchester United’s official website and he disclosed that he had been watching Bruno Fernandes in training and he could understand why Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was adamant to bring him to Old Trafford.
He said: “Yeah, in the brief moments that I have seen him in training, he has looked really, really good. He has looked like every type of player that the manager wants as well, so hopefully that can come to us on the pitch and he can show us what he can do. I can’t wait to play alongside him.”
Manchester United take on Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Monday but Scott McTominay is expected to miss that clash.
However, he has been working on his fitness and he declared that he was feeling good and should return to the pitch soon.
Bruno Fernandes is likely to link up with Fred and Nemanja Matic in midfield but the fans of the Red Devils would hope that McTominay and Paul Pogba play alongside Fernandes before the end of the season as they aim to reach their goal of finishing in the top Four of this season’s Champions League.
