Manchester United star Bruno Fernandes has revealed he is open to a move to Brazil in future as he’s a big fan of the Campeonato Brasileiro Série A.
The midfielder has been speaking to ESPN Brazil about his career so far, the situation at Manchester United and where he might end up in future.
The Portuguese star has been at Old Trafford since a €65m move from Sporting Club de Portugal in January 2020 and is an undisputed star of world football at this moment in time.
As well as being a key player for Manchester United, for whom he’s managed 64 goals and 54 assists in 187 games to date, he is already a star for Portugal.
At 28-years-old he is very much at the peak of his career and showing no signs of slowing down, with last season seeing him manage 14 goals and 15 assists in 59 games in all competitions.
That doesn’t mean Fernandes hasn’t considered his options, though, and it seems a move to Brazil is one of them.
“Whenever I can, I follow it, because I find Brazilian football attractive, electric football, with a lot of quality, joy, very one-on-one,” he said.
“It’s pure football. And I think that now, with the coaches that are there, not only the Portuguese, but also Brazilians, are increasingly developing in the tactical part.
“I don’t really like talking about the distant future, but it’s like I said. It’s attractive football, very interesting. The only thing is that the trips are very long there in Brazil (laughs).
“There are many competitions, many clubs that play Libertadores and Sudamericana, very good competitions. I’m not saying no, because Brazilian football is very attractive, and we never know the future.”
