Bruno Fernandes reaches huge Premier League milestone during Leicester victory | OneFootball

Bruno Fernandes achieved an impressive milestone during Manchester United's 3-0 win over Leicester City in the Premier League on Sunday.

The Red Devils cruised to a comfortable victory over newly-promoted Leicester, extending Ruud van Nistelrooy's unbeaten record to four games since the United legend took over from Erik ten Hag in October.

The interim boss will make way for new head coach Ruben Amorim on Monday, handing the Portuguese coach the keys to the squad in time for United's next Premier League clash with Ipswich Town on 24 November.

His efforts in Sunday's victory over the Foxes did not go unnoticed either, separating the two sides in the 17th minute to kick off United's eventual Premier League win. His strike also marked his 100th direct goal contribution in 170 league appearances.

Fernandes needed just one more appearance than Red Devils legend Cristiano Ronaldo to achieve this feat, recording his 100th involvement in 169 games.

Amorim will arrive at Old Trafford with United in 13th place in the Premier League table. Their recent run of form will be welcome news to the arriving coach, who also delivered a sensational 4-1 win over new rivals Manchester City in the Champions League with Sporting CP earlier this month.
