Bruno Fernandes jokes about with David de Gea on social media

Even on international duty, Manchester United’s players are not safe from teammate Bruno Fernandes’ light-hearted swipes at them on social media.

After telling Dean Henderson last week his AC Milan save was ‘for the photo’, Fernandes has another of Manchester United’s goalkeepers in his sights.

Fernandes responded to David de Gea’s post, displaying Spain’s new goalkeeper kit, asking ‘You do goalkeeper and model right?’.

It’s actually good to see De Gea. He has not played for Manchester United since the 0-0 draw with Chelsea on February 28, nearly a whole month ago.

Dean Henderson has come in and done well, and it will be intriguing to see who will be selected when United’s next Premier League game comes around on April 4.

De Gea has a chance to make a good impression on international duty for Spain over the coming week.

Spain’s World Cup qualifiers pit them against Greece, Georgia, and Kosovo.

If selected for all three, De Gea should be targeting clean sheets in all of those. That would be a good way to make a statement.

Fernandes’ Portugal face Azerbaijan tonight, then Serbia, and Luxembourg.

Hopefully Fernandes will get a rest in at least one of those games, and leave it to Cristiano Ronaldo to rack up his international goalscoring tally.
