Gary Neville sends a WARNING to Man United fans after Bruno Fernandes transfer
Manchester United have officially announced an agreement with Sporting Lisbon has been reached over Bruno Fernandes transfer to England.
Portuguese international already left his team to fly to Manchester and sign a contract.
Official statement says: “Manchester United is delighted to announce it has reached agreement with Sporting Clube de Portugal for the transfer of Bruno Fernandes.”
Former Manchester United defender Gary Neville thinks Fernandes won’t adapt to Premier League right now. Neville believes the midfielder, who scored 13 goals for Sporting this season, will need some time to feel confident in a new country.
"I've not got huge expectations of Bruno Fernandes in terms of this next few months.” Neville told Sky Sports (via Mirror)
"I think it'll take him a little time in England to settle in. He'll need some time.
"But they've got a good, quality player into the building. Ultimately we shouldn't be sat here thinking he's going to be amazing straight away.
"Obviously it's very difficult to hit the ground running in the January transfer (window)." he added.
Manchester United are meanwhile facing Manchester City in Carabao Cup semi-finals second leg.
