Solskjaer hails Fernandes impact as Manchester United return to the Champions League

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has hailed the impact of Bruno Fernandes as Manchester United returned to the Champions League after securing a third-place finish in the Premier League.

A penalty from Bruno Fernandes and an injury time goal from Jesse Lingard secured United’s position in Europe’s top competition next season and completed a remarkable comeback from Solskjaer’s side.

After a disappointing start to the season, they ended the campaign 14 games unbeaten, with a large part of that down to the huge impact Fernandes has had on the side since signing from Sporting CP back in January.
