The playmaker’s club have the ability to prevent him from participating in World Cup qualifiers later this month.
Manchester United head coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has hinted he could stop Bruno Fernandes from representing Portugal in World Cup qualifiers later this month.
Due to UK government coronavirus restrictions, should he report for international duty Fernandes would be forced to quarantine for 10 days upon returning.
That would force the United playmaker to miss two key matches – an outcome Solskjaer is keen to avoid.
