Manchester United captain defends that Ruben Amorim “he nurtured the talents at his disposal and let them ‘speak’ on the field” and hopes his compatriot can have “the same impact on the ‘harvest’ at the English club.
Bruno Fernandes considered this Wednesday that Ruben Amorim’s connection to the players is one of the reasons why he was successful at Sporting, speaking to .
“This can be seen from the how they say goodbye to him, how they feel, how he makes them feel part of the team and how they treat you. And you personal touch. This shows that he has a strong character and that he is someone who gives his players his all. He helped launch the high-level careers of several players, such as Nuno Mendes, Matheus Nunes and ‘our’ Manuel Ugarte, among others”, said Bruno Fernandes, in a brief interview with the club’s media.
“He nurtured the talents at his disposal and let them ‘speak’ on the pitch”
The captain of the ‘red devils’ defends that Ruben Amorim “he nurtured the talents at his disposal and let them ‘speak’ on the field” and hopes his compatriot can have “the same impact on United’s ‘harvest'”, while promising that the more experienced players will give him all the help he needs.
“I saw many moments when some players were in difficulty and he kept faith in them. He always goes to press conferences, always defends his players and always keeps them controlled and motivated, to give them the best opportunity to shine,” he said the former ‘Lions’ player.
Bruno Fernandes remembers that Ruben Amorim had at Sporting “a very young team, which is why his leadership was so important” and hopes he “can do the same with the young players in the Manchester United squad, bringing out the best in each one, with the help of the more experienced players”.
The club remembers that Bruno Fernandes left Sporting months before Ruben Amorim arrived at the club, coming from Sporting de Braga, and says that his captain has been a attentive observer of everything that happens in the ‘green and white’ emblem in recent years.
On the other hand, remember that the ‘lions’ have not won a Portuguese championship since 2001/02before Amorim ‘guided’ them to the title in 2020/21 and 2023/24, leaving Sporting with 11 wins in the first 11 games of the I Liga and in a privileged position to continue qualifying for the next phase of the Champions League.
Bruno Fernandes also alluded to the “warm farewell” that Sporting fans gave him at the José Alvalade Stadium after the 4-1 thrashing of Manchester City in the Champions League, despite being on his way out, which shows “the impact he had on the club”.
