Bruno Fernandes, the captain of Manchester United, has signed a new contract that will keep him at the club until June 2027, with the option for a further year.
The Portuguese midfielder has been a crucial player for the team since joining in January 2020, scoring 79 goals and contributing 67 assists in his 234 appearances.
Fernandes joined Manchester United from Sporting Lisbon in January 2020 for a transfer fee of £47 million.
His previous contract, which he signed in 2022, was set to expire in 2026.
“I am thrilled to have signed a new contract with Manchester United,” Fernandes said. “I am passionate about this club and I am excited to lead the team forward. I understand the responsibility and significance of wearing this shirt, and I am committed to dedicating myself to representing this incredible club.”
Fernandes was appointed as the club’s captain in July 2023, replacing Harry Maguire.
