Summary: Manchester United - Tottenham 2: 3, Cristiano Ronaldo scored a hat-trick (Sport 1)

Bruno Fernandez has become one of the best acquisitions in the history of Manchester United, certainly in light of the fact that he arrived in the January transfer window and immediately made a significant impact, but just over two years after being acquired by Sporting Lisbon, the Red Devils officially announced his contract this summer. With an option to extend for another year.

Fernandez has actually doubled his salary in his new contract and according to reports in the kingdom, he will now earn around £ 240,000 every week - meaning around £ 1 million a month.

However, he still earns almost half the amount that Cristiano Ronaldo earns (about £ 400,000 a week) and David de Gea (about £ 375,000 a week).

"From the moment I joined Manchester United, I had a very special relationship with the club and the fans," said the Portuguese midfielder who this week lifted his side to the World Cup in Qatar. "It's great for me that he will last. Even after two years at Manchester, the feeling of coming to Old Trafford is amazing and it is a huge privilege to wear the club uniform."

The 27-year-old Fernandez arrived for about 65 million euros from Sporting Lisbon two years ago, but his balance is amazing: in 117 games in all competitions in the Manchester United uniform, he scored 49 goals and scored another 39. In 78 Premier League appearances, he scored 35 goals and cooked 24 more.

His first half of the season was enough for him to be selected as United's player of the season for the 2019/20 season and there is no doubt that in the next five years he will look to win a first title with the club that has been parked for years.

Already tomorrow against Leicester City (Saturday, 19:30, Sport1) he will try to help the team maintain a chance to finish in the top four, otherwise he and Manchester United will be absent from the Champions League next season.
