Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has officially been crowned the Premier League Player of the Week, following a sensational performance that reminded the football world exactly why he remains one of the leagueโs most influential midfielders.

It was a performance that combined leadership, technique, and relentless energy โ the perfect example of what he brings to Manchester United every single week.
A Captainโs Performance When It Mattered Most
With United desperately needing momentum, Fernandes stepped up once again as the heartbeat of the team. His first goal showcased his trademark timing and confidence, arriving perfectly into space before firing calmly past the goalkeeper. His second was even better: a technically brilliant strike that lit up the stadium and shifted the game firmly in Unitedโs favour.
The assist, a beautifully weighted pass that sliced open Wolvesโ defensive line, was vintage Bruno โ vision, intelligence, and precision in one moment.
