Bruno Fernandes has named the standout moment from his Manchester United career that he would most like to show his son.

It was recently the third-year anniversary of Fernandes' move to United from Portuguese club Sporting Lisbon.

Since arriving at Old Trafford during the January transfer window of 2020, Fernandes has gone on to score 57 goals and provide 46 assists in just 158 games for the Red Devils.

He is yet to win a major piece of silverware with the club but that long wait could come to an end this season, with United still competing in four competitions.

The Red Devils are currently third in the Premier League, eight points behind leaders Arsenal, and remain in all three cup competitions, with the Carabao Cup final against Newcastle to look forward to on February 26.

Fernandes picks his favourite Man Utd goal

Fernandes has revealed to United supporters that his young son Goncalo has been asking to see his father's best goals.

When asked to name which goal, or moment, he would most like to show his son, Fernandes told the club's website: "My standout moment is probably the hat-trick against Leeds [in the 2021-22 season].

"That was a really good moment, on the opening day of the Premier League for us in that season.

"It was an amazing atmosphere, with the first time back as a full stadium. It was amazing the atmosphere there and I think that was a pretty good moment for me.

"I have some [other] goals I would like to show my son. I like the one against Newcastle at home [in September 2021’s 4-1 win], outside of the box: I think that was a pretty good goal.

"I have many others that I like. I could show him the many penalties I have scored too.

"I could show him any goal because I don't think he understands what is a good goal or a bad goal yet!"

Fernandes will be hoping to find the scoresheet against Leeds United again on Wednesday when they face each other in the Premier League at Old Trafford.

The two sides will then meet again at Elland Road on Sunday in the reverse fixture.
