When asked about his long-term future at Manchester United, Fernandes was careful not to speculate.
“That’s an impossible scenario to imagine, because it’s nothing that’s been discussed with me,” he explained.
He recalled his previous openness about his plans: “When it was discussed with me, I spoke openly with you at a press conference before a Nations League match. I like to enjoy the moment, and the most important thing for me now is representing the national team, because it’s a source of enormous pride to be able to play tomorrow (Saturday), and I still don’t know if I’ll play, let alone if I’ll leave Manchester United in a year. I’m happy where I am. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have stayed, but it’s something that doesn’t affect me.”
