Bruno Fernandes aims to become world champion with Portugal

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has set himself the main goal of winning the top prize at the 2026 World Cup with the Portugal national team. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

The experienced midfielder believes that this prestigious victory will be a worthy conclusion and the highest reward for Cristiano Ronaldo's legendary career. According to Goal.com, Fernandes wants his teammate's journey on the international stage to end at the highest peak.

For Ronaldo, the five-time Ballon d'Or winner, the next tournament, to be held on the green fields of the United States, Canada and Mexico, is expected to be the last opportunity in his career. In his interview, Fernandes said that he will give all his strength for the pride of his country and that winning the World Cup alongside Cristiano would be a wonderful reality.

In his opinion, this success is very important not only for the people of Portugal but also in recognition of Ronaldo's enormous contribution to the development of world football. Currently, Cristiano Ronaldo, who is defending the honour of Saudi Arabia's Al-Nassr club, has scored a total of 143 goals for the national team and holds the world record by this measure.

The Portugal team led by coach Roberto Martinez will play in the group stage of the 2026 World Cup against the national teams of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Uzbekistan and Colombia. In addition, a clear decision has been made regarding Bruno Fernandes's future at the club.

The leadership of Manchester United has decided not to sell its captain to another team. The skilful footballer, who delivered a total of 18 assists across all competitions last season, remains the main leader in the newly forming project of the team.

Club officials express confidence that Fernandes's experience and his skill on the field will be the foundation for the team's future victories.
