Bruno Fernandes: Sesko makes major revelation about United skipper Manchester United striker Benjamin Sesko says he is grateful to have Bruno Fernandes around him at Old Trafford. The Slovenian arrived at Old Trafford last summer to replace Rasmus Hojlund, who eventually moved to Napoli on a season-long loan. Sesko has done a decent job so far, especially after former head coach Ruben Amorim was replaced by caretaker manager Michael Carrick in January.

United have been on a roll under the Englishman, registering eight wins in the last 12 games and climbing up to third in the Premier League table. The Slovenian has been in fine form under Carrick, scoring five times in 11 appearances. For the record, the 22 year old only found the back of the net twice in 17 games under Amorim.

The Red Devils’ rise under the English manager has been powered largely by an inspired Fernandes , who has now scored eight goals and set up 19 more this season.
