Manchester United’s captain, Bruno Fernandes, celebrated his 29th birthday today, and his former teammate, David de Gea, along with compatriot Joao Cancelo, took a moment to send him heartfelt birthday wishes.
De Gea, who once shared the pitch with Fernandes, conveyed his warm wishes with a simple “Happy Birthday” and a nostalgic photo of them lifting the Carabao Cup during their time together at Manchester United.
On the other hand, Barcelona’s versatile fullback, Joao Cancelo, opted for a more personalized message for his fellow countryman. Cancelo’s message on social media read, “Congratulations, my boy. May you have many more years of great health and continued success. We’re together.”
Presently, Fernandes and Cancelo find themselves side by side at the Portuguese national team camp. Meanwhile, De Gea is still in search of a new club after his contract with Manchester United expired at the conclusion of the previous season.
While the two Portuguese players are gearing up for a Euro qualifier against Slovakia later today, De Gea continues his quest to secure a new chapter in his professional career.
