Manchester: So, here’s the scoop. Patrice Evra, the former captain of Manchester United, is calling for Bruno Fernandes to be stripped of his captaincy. He thinks Harry Maguire should get the armband back.
Fernandes took over as captain back in July 2023 when Erik ten Hag made the switch. Maguire had been sidelined for a while, and Fernandes stepped in as vice-captain. But now, it seems like Maguire is back in form and ready to lead again.
Interestingly, Maguire’s contract was set to expire this summer, but Ruben Amorim just announced that he’s extended it for another year, keeping him at the club until 2026. That’s a big deal!
Amorim explained that he had a chat with Maguire and emphasized the need for him to step up his game and leadership skills. He mentioned how the team really needs strong leaders right now, and Maguire has shown he can be one.
After hearing the news, Evra took to Instagram, urging the club to give the captaincy back to Maguire. He wrote, “Give him the armband back!!!!” praising Maguire for his resilience and leadership through tough times.
