Amad Diallo reacts to fresh Bruno Fernandes announcement at Man United
Man United star Amad Diallo has given his reaction following an update on his teammate and captain Bruno Fernandes.
It has been a difficult season at Old Trafford, with even the arrival of Ruben Amorim to replace Erik ten Hag as manager failing to turn the club’s fortunes around.
The Red Devils are currently languishing in the bottom half of the Premier League table, and their only hope of winning silverware, or qualifying for the Champions League, is through lifting the Europa League.
Despite that, one bright spark for Man United has been Fernandes, with the Portugal international leading by example in his role as captain.
Bruno Fernandes rewarded for excellent form
Last month saw the 30-year-old consistently excel for Amorim’s side, most notably with Fernandes netting a hat-trick as Man United beat Real Sociedad in the Europea League.
However, he did also impress in the Premier League, scoring two goals and providing two assists in the two games he played in the competition last month.
That has now seen Fernandes named as the Premier League Player of the Month for March, something which has seen him hailed by one of his teammates.

After the Man United‘s Instagram account posted confirmation of the midfielder’s latest award on Friday (4 April), Amad was among those to react.
The winger shared that post to his own Instagram story, before captioning it with two loveheart emojis in a show of support for his teammate.
Amad himself is currently out of action for Man United after picking up an ankle ligament injury that brought a premature end to his season back in February.

Football Insider Verdict
Rewards such as this only go to prove how good Fernandes has been for his side this season in such challenging circumstances.
However, responses to that such as this from Amad show how important he is to the club even regardless of his performances.
Former Man United man Anthony Elanga also paid tribute to Fernandes after helping Nottingham Forest beat the Red Devils earlier this week.
Combined with this post from Amad, and it does seem to show the high regard that Fernandes is held in by his younger peers.
That seems a glowing testament to his leadership despite doubts from the outside, and means it feels like keeping him at Man United is vital for the club going forward, both for what his own talents, and what he can bring out of others.
