Ryan Giggs all praise for Bruno

LONDON: Manchester United legend Ryan Giggs has hailed the instant impact of midfielder Bruno Fernandes, and believes he is yet to hit his peak.

The Portuguese playmaker has settled in quickly to life at Old Trafford, scoring in his last three games and notching two assists in just five appearances since arriving from Sporting Lisbon for £68m in January.

United had been crying out for some more creativity in the middle of the park, and his early influence on the team has been clear for all to see. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men haven’t lost while he has been in the starting line-up.

And Wales boss Giggs, who knows what it takes to be a successful midfielder at United, feels the club has a “fantastic” new addition to the team who has provided a boost to his team-mates, but still thinks supporters have plenty more to look forward to.

“He’s a fantastic player,” he told Sky Sports. “He’s lifted the place, he has lifted everyone around him and it’s still early days. I still think he can get even better.

“He’s hit the ground running which is what you want - especially [after] signing in the January Transfer Window [because] it doesn’t always happen.

“But he’s fantastic and I’m pleased to see him doing so well.” (Agencies)
