Laps with Bruno Fernandes at Old Trafford. Not all Manchester United efforts are focused on sealing new additions, ensuring the continuity of its password for many years.

Now it will have to be understood with the one from Madeira, something that with Portugal they have not achieved so far.
But United's Bruno is another. With the national team he has only accumulated five goals, while in Manchester he has turned Old Trafford into his private garden. Hence it turns out difficult to imagine a United without the presence of Maia.
