Portuguese star Bruno Fernandes has selected Spaniard, Juan Mata, as his preferred Manchester United player to self-isolate with under COVID-19 pandemic.

Fernandes has become a fan-favourite at Old Trafford in his short time at the Theatre of Dreams after signing for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men last January.

When asked to pick his perfect isolation partner, he told United’s official website: "I would choose Juan, because if I isolate with Juan I can listen to my song all day, every day! He always sings it to me!"

"It's not the atmosphere of Old Trafford, but Juan is the kind of guy who puts all his heart in the song, so when he sings the music for me is really nice!

"Normally I arrive before him, and he comes at breakfast, gives me his hand and starts to sing the song – Bruno, Bruno, Bruno!"

United are yet to lose a match with the Portuguese star in their ranks, which highlights the significant impact he has made at Old Trafford.
