After removing the captain’s armband from Harry Maguire, Manchester United has officially appointed Bruno Fernandes, the talented midfielder, as the team’s permanent captain.
The decision was made known on Thursday, July 20, following widespread speculation about Fernandes potentially taking on the role after serving as one of the assistant captains to Maguire.
This move came after Harry Maguire himself confirmed through social media on Sunday that Erik ten Hag had relieved him of his captaincy position. In an official statement, Manchester United announced, “Bruno Fernandes has been named as the new club captain of Manchester United.”
