Rúben Amorim offers fresh Insight into Bruno Fernandes’ Injury

Manchester United head coach Rúben Amorim has provided an update on the injury situation of club captain Bruno Fernandes.

Fernandes, who has been a key figure for United this season recently picked up a muscle-related issue that forced him out of action. Ruben Amorim, while speaking to the media, confirmed that the injury is not a long-term problem, but stressed that the club will not take any unnecessary risks with one of their most influential players.

The Portuguese confirmed that Fernandes is already responding well to treatment and remains heavily involved with the squad off the pitch, continuing to show leadership despite his absence. He also praised Fernandes’ commitment and professionalism, noting that the midfielder is eager to return as soon as possible.

He said,

“I think Kobbie Mainoo, Bruno Fernandes, De Ligt and Harry Maguire will not be ready for this game”.

He made it clear that the medical team will decide the timeline for his comeback, with the priority being a full recovery rather than a rushed return. While, Fernandes is expected to miss upcoming fixtures, United remain optimistic that he will be back in contention soon.

Who are the players not available for Manchester United?

Manchester United are currently dealing with a large injury list, with players like Kobbie Mainoo, Matthijs de Ligt, and Harry Maguire also unavailable. Additionally, Bryan Mbeumo, Amad Diallo, and Noussair Mazraoui are absent due to the Africa Cup of Nations duty.

The return of Fernandes would be a major boost as the club navigates a demanding run of matches, with Amorim confident that his captain will return back stronger once fully fit.
