Bruno Fernandes spotted wearing protective cast amid further Manchester United injury worry

Bruno Fernandes is a doubt for Man Utd ahead of Monday’s trip to Crystal Palace and he has been spotted with his wrist in a cast.

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has been spotted with his right wrist in a protective medical cast as he battles to be fit for Monday’s trip to Crystal Palace.

The 29-year-old picked up an injury in the FA Cup semi-final win against Coventry City and has since played through the pain barrier against Sheffield United and Burnley. But nearly two weeks on the injury remains heavily strapped as seen when he was pictured leaving a coffee shop in Wilmslow on Friday morning.

Fernandes has never missed a United game through injury and he is one of only four first-team players to go through this campaign without picking up an injury that has forced them out of the squad.

Ten Hag is also sweating on the fitness of Scott McTominay ahead of Monday’s game, although Jonny Evans and Anthony Martial have returned to training.

“Scott didn’t train so far this week but I expect him back in training on Saturday and we have to see if he is 100% available or for a part of the game,” said Ten Hag.

“Jonny Evans returned today for team training. [Friday] we are off and then we have two days until the game. Martial was partly in team training.”
