Captain Fernandes re-signs with Man United until 2027

Midfielder Bruno Fernandes (Portugal), the captain of Manchester United of the English Professional Soccer League (EPL), will remain with the club through 2027.

United announced on Friday (June 15) that Fernandes has re-signed with the club through June 30, 2027. The deal includes an option for a one-year extension, the club added.

Fernandes has been the club's ace since joining United in January 2020 after spells with Udinese, Sampdoria (Italy) and Sporting CP (Portugal).

In 234 appearances for United, he has scored 79 goals and provided 67 assists, helping the club win the League Cup in 2022-2023 and the FA Cup in 2023-2024.

Since last summer, he has also worn the captain's armband, succeeding Harry Maguire in leading the squad.

“In my discussions with the hierarchy and Eric [Tenakh], it was clear how determined everyone is to fight for trophies in the coming years,” Fernandes said. ”I can see how positive the future is and I'm happy to be able to take the team forward.”

He added: “Everyone knows that I am passionate about United. I understand the responsibility and importance of pulling on this shirt, and I know the level of commitment and desire it takes to represent this incredible club,” he emphasized.

“I've already had many special moments here, but I wouldn't have signed the contract if I didn't think I could have more of my best moments in a United shirt,” Fernandes added. 파워볼사이트 추천
