Fernandes Named EPL Player Of The Month

By Daily Sports on March 17, 2020

Manchester United’s Bruno Fernandes has beaten Marcos Alonso and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to be named the Premier League's player of the month for February after his exceptional form since joining in January.

Fernandes, 25, joined United for an initial fee of €55 million and has thrived as a playmaker in the middle of the park.

The Portugal midfielder has been pulling strings in United's attack to bag two goals – against Watford and Everton – and three assists in the league since his debut last month, helping the club beat top-four opponents Chelsea and Manchester City.

“Since I was a kid it was a dream to play for Man United, and to be there at Old Trafford is the biggest dream of my career,” Fernandes said.

“When you come to a new club you always want to score, and the first goal is special. It doesn’t matter how the goal is scored, but important is the goal’s worth. I’m happy with my start but from now I need to give more to be better.”

His instant impact has allowed United to go unbeaten since his debut and they have given their Champions League qualification hopes a shot in the arm by moving up to fifth in the standings, three points behind fourth-placed Chelsea.

However, the Premier League has been suspended until April 4 due to the coronavirus pandemic which has been responsible for an unprecedented shutdown of world sport. (ESPN)
