In a heartwarming moment, Bruno Fernandes’ son demonstrated early signs of following in his father’s footsteps as a professional football player. During a gathering of Manchester United players and their families at Old Trafford after the season’s final game against Fulham on May 30, Fernandes’ family joined in the celebrations.

While this season has had its ups and downs for United fans, the presence of manager Erik ten Hag offers hope for the future. Ten Hag led the team to their first trophy in six years and secured their return to Champions League football. Despite some low points, such as Cristiano Ronaldo’s departure and heavy defeats, the squad remains focused on their upcoming FA Cup final.

During the event, the families enjoyed a lap of honor, allowing the children to experience the Manchester sunshine on the pitch. Fernandes’ son, Goncalo, even scored a goal past Fred and celebrated by imitating his father’s iconic knee slide and ear-cupping celebration.

Bruno Fernandes played a pivotal role in Manchester United’s campaign, serving as captain for much of the season in the absence of Harry Maguire. The Portuguese midfielder contributed eight goals and eight assists in the Premier League, making him a key figure in the team’s success.
