In news that may irritate Bruno Fernandes, it has been revealed that Manchester United only signed the Portuguese because they were unable to obtain their top target.
The Red Devils had hoped to sign Borussia Dortmund's Erling Haaland, but the player's decision to stay in the Bundesliga led United to search elsewhere, according to The Athletic, which was cited by The Sun.
It's been reported that the club was in upheaval due to fan outrage over Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's appointment and lack of success, and that a top-tier signing was required to calm things down.
DON'T MISS:
With that in mind, Bruno was eventually signed, and it's difficult to think of a player who has had a greater influence at Old Trafford in recent years.
His forte has been goals and assists, as well as a remarkable work ethic that has at times dragged United by the scruff of the neck.
Will it be second time lucky for United with Haaland anticipated to be on the market in a year?
