Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes is undoubtedly one of the best midfielders across Europe.

Sunderland skipper Granit Xhaka was asked to rank Fernandes, Chelsea star Cole Palmer and Liverpool’s creative wizard Florian Wirtz as attacking midfielders.

He picked Fernandes over the other two stars and we completely agree with him.

He said (via Sky Sports): “Fernandes has already shown for many, many years what he can do.

“His numbers are unbelievable and I have a lot of respect for him. I will put Bruno first.”

Fernandes has been the creative heartbeat of Manchester United since arriving from Sporting CP in 2020, consistently producing world-class numbers season after season.

The Portuguese maestro has racked up 100 goals and 86 assists in 298 appearances, a staggering output for a midfielder.

Over the past five years, no player has created more chances in the Premier League than Fernandes, proving his unrivalled influence in the final third.

Whether deployed as a number ten, deeper playmaker, or wide creator, he always finds a way to deliver.

This is a testament to his footballing intelligence, passion for the badge and work ethic.

Cole Palmer is a brilliant young attacking midfielder...
