Bruno Fernandes has been a true leader for Manchester United since joining the club in 2020. From the very first game, he established himself as a leader of the club.
The Portuguese midfielder joined United from Sporting CP. And now, he is the club captain. During his time at United, he has developed friendships with many players.
Some of them are still playing for United, and some have left the club. One of such players who still shares a great relationship with Fernandes and left the club is Marcus Rashford.
The Manchester United academy graduate left the club on loan to Barcelona this summer. Since joining the Catalan club, he has revived his career.
Marcus Rashford was meant to be the face of Manchester United. But after Ruben Amorim took over the job at United, he fell out with the manager.
As a result, he had to spend the second half of last season on loan to Aston Villa, where he showed glimpses of his talent.
But this summer, United offloaded him to Spain. Even though he is not playing for the club, one Manchester United player still remembers his birthday.
Bruno Fernandes wished Marcus Rashford on his birthday on his Instagram story, saying:
“Happy birthday broski. Enjoy your day as you deserve.”
Rashford had a tough time at United in his last few years. And, perhaps Bruno Fernandes knew about his struggles as they shared a close bond.
That is why Fernandes mentioned ‘as you deserve’ because Marcus Rashford is a talented player who is yet to fulfil his potential.
Rashford played over 400 games for United and scored over 100 goals.
