Manchester United star Fred is on holiday in Croatia after being blocked from international duty.
Fred was not permitted to link up with the Brazil international squad by United, upon Premier League instructions.
Premier League clubs refused to release players travelling to ‘red list’ countries for internationals, as it would require a 10 days quarantine upon return.
Fred has this morning shared an Instagram video from the beach in Split, Croatia as he looks to ‘recharge’.
Green list
Croatia is listed by the Government as a ‘green list’ country, meaning there are no restrictions upon returning to the UK.
Fred started all three of Manchester United’s opening games to start the Premier League season.
He did not have much time for a summer break after reaching the Copa America with Brazil, before returning for pre-season.
Fred was not pictured in United’s training pictures from Carrington earlier this week, and he did not play in the team’s friendly match with Stoke City on Wednesday.
With teammate Scott McTominay recovering from a groin injury, United need Fred fresh to take on Newcastle in the upcoming Premier League game on September 11.
United will be hoping the break does him good heading into the stretch of games ahead in September, in which United will get their Champions League push underway.
