Man Utd fans need to thank Bruno Fernandes's wife Ana Pinho for the team's success this season. Thanks to skipper Fernandes's incredible 19 assists so far in the EPL (one shy of the league record shared by Kevin de Bruyne and Thierry Henry), Man United third in the points table.
However, had Ana not stopped Bruno from accepting an offer to move to Saudi Arabia last summer, the Red Devils might have struggled,
In an interview with Wayne Rooney, Fernandes revealed: "It's difficult when you hear things coming from Saudi. They were offering me a lot of money. But my wife said to me, âHave you achieved your dreams? Have you achieved everything you wanted?' Those small things that she said made me [stay]."
On hearing this, Rooney joked: "You always have to listen to your wife."
