# Manchester United: Bruno Fernandes debut prediction against Wolves excites loads of supporters

**According to a report from the[Telegraph via MU Live](https://tribuna.com/en/manutd/news/3556010/), Manchester United signing Bruno Fernandes could be in line to face Wolves less than 48 hours after he put pen to paper – resulting in waves of Red Devils supporters rubbing their hands together over the news.**

Fernandes, who signed a five-and-a-half-year contract at Old Trafford having moved from Sporting Lisbon to the tune of £47 million rising to £67.7 million with add-ons ([BBC](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/51292312)), is now expected make his debut against Wolves having only just moved to the Premier League less than two days ago.

The Portuguese playmaker was a high priority target for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side all January ([A Bola](https://www.abola.pt/Clubes/2020-01-22/sporting-leoes-e-united-com-nova-ronda-negocial-por-bruno-fernandes/825493/147)), with attacking midfielder Jesse Lingard’s position in the side now seemingly under threat. Compared to the Englishman, at least statistically, it’s no contest – with Fernandes registering 3.5 shots per game, 3.7 key passes and 1.8 dribbles over Lingard whilst playing for Sporting in the first half of the season,[as per WhoScored.com.](https://www.whoscored.com/Players/123761/Show/Bruno-Fernandes)

As a result, these United supporters are celebrating the fact that the 25-year-old could start against Wolves in his first league outing for the club – here’s what they had to say on Twitter.
