Bruno Fernandes was surprised during the press conference on Monday with a nice message from manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer: the Portuguese is the captain of Tuesday against Paris Saint-Germain Manchester United. He replaces the injured Harry Maguire.
Since Maguire has not traveled to Paris, as has Edinson Cavani, Solskjaer was asked who would wear the captain’s armband against PSG. “We hope that Harry will be fit again next weekend. We don’t know for sure yet, but we hope so. The captain is now sitting next to me: Bruno will be the captain tomorrow.”
Fernandes had not expected the news from Solskjaer. “I didn’t see this coming either”, he responds. “I will find out at the same time as you. It is of course an honor to be the captain of such a big club as Manchester United. This is very important to me.”
“Actually, everyone should be a little captain, because we all have to help each other. But when it comes to leadership, everyone is different. It’s not about me, it’s about the team. Leading a team is something you do every day during training and during the training. competitions. Everyone takes part in that. “
