Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes is reportedly at Carrington this morning for treatment.
The Red Devils captain was playing through an injury last month, but it appears he has yet to return to full fitness despite Michael Carrick’s claim earlier this month that he was over it.
Fernandes did not start to warm up until the 58th minute against AFC Bournemouth at Old Trafford yesterday having been left out of the starting line-up.
The last time the Man United star started a game on the bench was May 4, 2025, and Carrick insisted the decision to leave him on the bench was tactical.
It will be interesting to see whether any injury update will emerge in the coming days.
Fernandes has struggled to impress this season, which could be as a result of his lack of full fitness.
The 32-year-old has lost possession more than 100 times in the Premier League this season, and he needs to return to top form if United are to turn their results around.
They are without a win in their last eight games across all competitions, with Carrick under pressure and tipped to be sacked this week.
The players have been below par this season, and an underwhelming summer transfer window has not helped the Red Devils boss.
However, he could be at the receiving end of Man United’s woeful start to 2026-27 in the coming hours or days should the board decide to let him go.
