Bruno Fernandes’ Rare Injury Absence: Manchester United’s Star Midfielder Misses Game for the First Time

Manchester United fans were left stunned as star midfielder Bruno Fernandes was sidelined with an injury, missing his first-ever game for the club. Since joining the Red Devils in January 2020, Fernandes has been a pivotal player, rarely missing any matches. However, a hand injury sustained during the recent clash against Burnley has forced him to sit out the game against Crystal Palace.

The absence of Fernandes comes as a significant blow for Manchester United, as the Portugal international has been instrumental in the team’s success. With Casemiro stepping up as captain in Fernandes’ absence, all eyes will be on Mason Mount to make an impact on the pitch.

What makes Fernandes’ injury record even more remarkable is his history of rarely missing games throughout his career. From his time at Sporting CP to Sampdoria and the Portugal national team, Fernandes has maintained his resilience and commitment to his craft.

In a previous interview, Fernandes attributed his impressive injury record to his family’s support and upbringing. He credited his parents, wife, and children for helping him stay physically fit and mentally strong throughout his career.

While Fernandes’ absence will be felt by the team, United will have to adapt and find ways to succeed without their star midfielder. As the match against Crystal Palace unfolds, fans will be watching eagerly to see how the team copes without Fernandes on the field.

As United fans await Fernandes’ return, they will be hoping for a successful outcome in his absence. The game against Crystal Palace will undoubtedly test the team’s depth and resilience, but it also presents an opportunity for other players to step up and shine in Fernandes’ absence.
