A new contract with Manchester United extends Bruno Fernandes' stay through the summer of 2026, with an additional year of extension possible.

When he arrived at Old Trafford from Sporting in January 2020, the midfielder made an immediate impact and has since scored 49 goals and provided 39 assists in 117 games.

This summer, while United are looking for a new permanent manager, the 27-year-form old's has been questioned more than usual.

I've always had a special bond with Manchester United and our incredible fans since the day I joined the club," Fernandes said in a statement. I grew up rooting for this team and had aspirations of playing for them one day. It's an honor and a privilege to realize that dream now.

After two years, it still feels incredible to walk out at Old Trafford, to hear the supporters shout my song, and to score in front of the Stretford End. Wearing this jersey is an honor and a privilege that I take very seriously.
