Portuguese star, Bruno Fernandes has been named Premier League player of the month of November following his superlative displays for Manchester United. Fernandes netted four times in four Premier League games in October as he continued to inspire his teammates with big performances.
Two of those goals came in the 3-1 win at Everton on November 7. The midfielder also scored the winner in a 1-0 victory over West Brom on November 21, before ending the month with another goal in a 3-2 win at Southampton on November 29. That result at St Mary’s helped United move back into the top half of the table and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side are now sixth in the Premier League, following their 3-1 win over West Ham on Saturday.
Fernandes has now won the Premier League’s Player of the Month award three times since his arrival in English football in January, having also claimed the award twice last season – in February and June. The 26-year-old now has 11 goals in 17 games this season in all competitions, after scoring in Tuesday’s disappointing 3-2 defeat to RB Leipzig in the Champions League.
United return to Premier League action on Saturday against rivals Manchester City.
