Bruno Fernandes' leaked WhatsApp messages to Sporting players tells Ruben Amorim everything about Man Utd star

Bruno Fernandes' leaked WhatsApp messages to Sporting players tells Ruben Amorim everything about Man Utd star

Ruben Amorim can count on Bruno Fernandes based on his leaked WhatsApp voice note.

Bruno Fernandes' leaked WhatsApp voice note to Sporting players tells Ruben Amorim everything about the Manchester United star's mentality.

Fernandes is widely regarded as Man United's best signing in the post-Sir Alex Ferguson era.

He's weighed in with goals and assists since joining the Old Trafford outfit back in January 2020 and wears the captain's armband.

Fernandes has a no-nonsense mentality and expects maximum effort from his teammates on the pitch.

And he'll call any of his colleagues out if he feels that standard isn't being met.

That's judging by his outburst in a leaked WhatsApp voice note when he was still at Sporting.

Laying into his teammates, he said: "Bro, I don't say anything! I honestly, if you want me to tell you, I'd rather not comment on anything.

"I think very badly of some of the attitudes of some players. Actually not a certain attitude, it's an attitude that does not exist. There are players who have no attitude here, bro. They don't want to be here, they don't want to play.

"They don't want to be here then f***k off, let them say they don't want to play. They spend a year here getting money, and then they f**k off, bro. Sh*t attitude bro, for f**ks sake."

Amorim can count on Fernandes based on his leaked WhatsApp voice note as the 30-year-old is set to retain the captaincy upon his fellow countryman's arrival.

Last season, the Red Devils skipper scored 15 goals across all competitions as he inspired his side to FA Cup glory over Manchester City.

This season, however, he has just three goals to his name as the club are way off the pace, languishing in 13th place in the table, with just 12 points on the board.

Man United return to action on Thursday when they face PAOK before resuming their faltering league campaign against Leicester City.

Amorim will then take charge of Man United for their league clash at Ipswich Town.
