The latest Man Utd news as head coach Ruben Amorim has been given a key update on the club captain ahead of his first match in charge of the team.
Bruno Fernandes will return to Manchester United from international duty - earlier than expected - after the nation's success in the UEFA Nations League. The United captain is among four players now released from the Portugal squad midway through November's break.
Portugal are back in action on Monday night when they meet Croatia away. But instead of him being part of the squad, Fernandes will be back at United, having been given permission to return to his club.READ MORE: BBC eyes 'leading candidate' as Gary Lineker Match of the Day host replacement Speaking in his pre-match press conference, Portugal manager Roberto Martinez explained his decision to let four of his key players, including Fernandes, leave the squad. "In the first stage, we made six changes from one game to the next," he said.
"The game against Croatia is important, we need to look at other players. We're going to let go of Bernardo Silva, Pedro Neto, Cristiano Ronaldo and Bruno Fernandes, who is suspended - so we're going to call up Fábio Silva and Quenda from the Under-21s."
