Ruben Amorim Reveals Shocking Reason for Dropping Bruno Fernandes from Starting XI and Stripping Captaincy

In a dramatic turn of events, Manchester United manager Ruben Amorim has reportedly revealed why he made the stunning decision to remove Bruno Fernandes from the starting lineup — and why he no longer considers him fit to wear the captain’s armband.

Speaking after the team’s final training session ahead of the Liverpool clash, Amorim claimed that a tense exchange with Fernandes forced him to change his plans entirely.

“Although I planned to give him a new role as my captain against Liverpool, what he said to me during training yesterday made me remove him from the starting XI. I don’t think he deserves to be my captain anymore,” Amorim reportedly told his staff.

The revelation has sent shockwaves through the Manchester United fanbase, with supporters demanding to know what could have possibly been said to provoke such a strong reaction from the manager.

Fernandes, who has captained the club since last season, has long been viewed as one of United’s most passionate and vocal leaders. However, tensions behind the scenes have reportedly been building in recent weeks, with Amorim determined to enforce stricter discipline and accountability within the squad.

If the reports of Amorim’s statement are accurate, this could mark a turning point in Fernandes’ future at Old Trafford, with some fans and pundits already questioning whether his time as captain — or even as a Manchester United player — may be coming to an end.

The situation remains fluid, but one thing is clear: Amorim’s bold decision has shaken the dressing room, and all eyes will be on how United respond in one of their most important matches of the season.
