MANCHESTER UNITED fear they could be without Bruno Fernandes for next month’s Manchester derby due to a hamstring injury.
Fernandes was forced off at half-time in the 2-1 defeat to Aston Villa on Sunday, having pulled up towards the end of the first half.
United manager Ruben Amorim said Fernandes has a soft tissue injury and it is believed to be a hamstring problem.
Eyewitnesses say Fernandes was limping heavily when out with friends on Monday evening.
He was pictured after dining at Turquoise Restaurant in Alderley Edge, Cheshire.
Fernandes was asked whether he would be fit for the Boxing Day clash against Newcastle, to which he replied: “No”.
The 31-year-old is due to be sidelined for United’s upcoming home games against Newcastle and Wolves, the New Year trips to Leeds and Burnley, the FA Cup third round visit of Brighton and the Old Trafford derby on January 17.
United head to Arsenal on January 25, which could be the scene of Fernandes’ potential return date.
This will be Fernandes’ first prolonged period out injured for United.
He has only previously missed two games through injury in May 2024 and another due to illness in March 2022.

Worried. What's the reason of their worry? Bruno Fernandes featured in he last game and it wasn't in favour of United.

seriously 😳 u don't know me but saying Bruno is my idol?let me educate you on my affiliation with united. I started watching them from 1973 the Year the legendary Dennis law left.i saw the legendary holy Trinity played. Bobby Charlton, George Best and Dennis Law who also stopped playing the year after.u talking about idol I have no idol but the Almighty himself as real fan I went through years of pain and suffering without a trophy. I'm no plastic, paper or cardboard fan.so please stay in your lane and don't get disrespectful.
I’m not bluffing on what I said and if you’re a real Manchester United as you said you will understand what make united United, we don’t build a team on a player we do on individual. Bruno has nothing to offer the club than himself and feeling entitled to the club despite getting paid think he can be a club legend without major trophies. Most of you don’t know United will still be united without him get that right🤝

I can see you that help footballers to play there ball knows better dummy. Just like I said your idol has nothing to offer united to himself he’s better but to the club he’s useless. If he’s messiah he should be able to win do the basics win champion league, EPl and the 2 Europa your useless idol lost lol

you're talking rubbish.manchester United is nothing without Bruno and has been proven over and over again.he's the best creative player not only at man u but in the league.
What make United something with your idol. 2 Europa league slips off and dude want to force himself to be a club legend without major trophies. Without your idol United would have been in a better place with better place than your idol. Get that right🤝

Oops, what difference will he makes even if he plays? Sometimes he's there on the pitchndoing great, other times he looks lost and needs to be substituted. Wishing him speedy recovery.

Manchester united is my childhood team.It was relegated in 1974 but I continue morally supporting it.For the remaining matches, can you bring back the sprit you depicted in an away encounter to Crystal Palace recently? Malambo in Livingstone, Zambia.

You are talking about derby instead of talking about games in general? Playing Manchester city is like playing a premium league final game.

Put lisandro martines and casemiro as midfield duo Martines proves he can be a deep lying midfielder vs aston villa and he was calm and excellent on ball as always and with casemiro our midfield will be solid wven tjough creativity will be kesser and anyway scoring goals is not at all a problem fro united this season …so better its that was…hopefully deligt back vs man city and

Mount can play his position comfortably. We need to build without him on the pitch. Gone are the days where you will be looking for few individual brilliance the whole team needs to work their ass out to win anything worthwhile individual brilliance will still be there but not dependent on fully
