5 Manchester United players to watch out for in Euro 2020

#1 Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United Midfielder, Portugal)

Portugal will look to Bruno Fernandes for creative direction

With captain and team talisman Cristiano Ronaldo's advancing age (he is 36) and decline in goalscoring prowess, Portugal will look to Manchester United's Bruno Fernandes for creative direction at the Euros.

Manchester United's player of the season for two seasons running now, many United fans are up in arms over the fact that City's Kevin de Bruyne was selected as the EPL Player of the year this season despite the Portuguese midfielder registering more goals and assists.

With a well-balanced side that has equal helpings of youthful energy and experience, Fernando Santos' Portugal side look well prepared to put up a stern title defense.

Bruno is expected to partner Juventus' Cristiano Ronaldo, Atletico Madrid's Joao Feliz and Liverpool's Diogo Jota in a fearsome foursome of attackers Santos will employ ahead of two defensive midfielders.
