Ruben Amorim will have an insight into Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes after seeing his leaked WhatsApp messages.
The midfielder left Sporting CP in January 2020 to join the Red Devils – just two months before Amorim joined.
While he was at the Portuguese club, voice-notes between him and his friend were leaked.
Bruno Fernandes was critcising the poor attitude of some of his Sporting team-mates, stating that they did not care about the club.

‘Bro, I don’t say anything! I honestly, if you want me to tell you, I’d rather not comment on anything,’ he said.
‘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*** off, let them say they don’t want to play.
‘They spend a year here getting money, and then they f*** off, bro. S*** attitude bro, for f**** s sake,’ he said.

Despite the explicit nature of these messages, Fernandes’ ruthless desire to win is what has made him the player he is.
Erik ten Hag recognised this mentality in 2023, which is part of the reason he stripped Harry Maguire of the club captaincy and handed it to Fernandes.
Speaking yesterday, Amorim demanded fearlessness from his players in tonight’s game against Manchester City.
When he arrives at Carrington, he will be happy to know that Fernandes will need no encouragement to meet this standard.
