Bruno Fernandes reacts to concerning record as Denzel Dumfries drops Manchester United transfer hint

Here are your Manchester United evening headlines on Sunday, June 18.

Fernandes reacts to concerning record after Portugal win

Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes claimed he 'does not think about getting tired' after playing his 69th match of the season.

Fernandes was excellent for United this season and he was the de facto captain in the absence of Harry Maguire. The midfielder was instrumental in the team's progress and he won praise for his durability throughout the campaign.

The 28-year-old played the most games of any player in Europe's top five leagues, playing 5,900 minutes, which is significantly more than the player who recorded the second-most minutes with 4,500 (Inter Milan's Lautaro Martinez).

Fernandes' robustness is impressive and he showed no signs of slowing down on Saturday night when playing for Portugal.

Dumfries drops United transfer hint

Denzel Dumfries has said he is happy at Inter Milan and has no reason to depart the Italian side but admitted that 'players come and go' amid rumours of a move to Manchester United.

The Netherlands international has been mooted as a potential right-back target for United manager Erik ten Hag. The Reds have Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Diogo Dalot in that position at present.

The 27-year-old turned out 51 times in all competitions for Inter in the recently concluded campaign which ended in defeat to Manchester City in the Champions League final.

Dumfries has two years left to run on his deal at the San Siro, having joined from Dutch side PSV Eindhoven in 2021. There is therefore no immediate pressure for Inter to sell the Netherlands international.
