Bruno Fernandes has revealed that Cristiano Ronaldo regularly asks him for updates on the goings-on at Manchester United
The pair, who both represent the Portuguese national team, have both played for Sporting CP and Man Utd, with Fernandes joining the Old Trafford side to much fanfare at the start of January.
Ronaldo joined the club in 2003 before eventually moving to Real Madrid for a world record £80m at the time a few years later.
Fernandes spoke to his compatriot for advice before moving to the Premier League, and he says they still talk all the time about United.

"He likes the club, I think he won his first Ballon d'Or here, so it's a club who've marked him, for sure."

In 27 appearances, he contributed 20 goals via 12 goals scored himself and eight assists.
