Manchester United’s new signing Bruno Fernandes has taken to Instagram to bid farewell to former club Sporting Lisbon.
The Portugal international, aged 25, has been quiet on social media since completing his £47m move to Old Trafford.
But just over 24 hours after finalising the deal, Fernandes has penned a lengthy message to his old team.
Writing in Portuguese, he said: “137 official games, 2 league cups and a Portuguese cup then I say goodbye to you!
“Thank you for all the moments you gave me and for all the people who made me know! Thanks for trophies we won together and for the many individual ones that you helped me to win.
“It is difficult to find words that make sense and are sufficient to thank you for everything that you, Sporting Clube de Portugal, have done for me.
“I will take with me all the positive moments I have lived with you and leave behind all the negatives that may have happened. I just want to have good memories of you, just as I hope to leave good memories of you with me.
