Manchester United’s midfield maestro, Bruno Fernandes, has lauded teammate Kobbie Mainoo’s selection for the senior England national team, describing it as well-deserved.
The rising star, Mainoo, received his maiden call-up to join the Three Lions squad on Tuesday, March 19, following his earlier invitation to the England U21 national team camp.
Reacting to Mainoo’s call-up by England manager Gareth Southgate, Fernandes expressed his admiration, stating, “Well deserved kid ❤️ @kobbie.”
Mainoo aims to showcase his talent and potential to England boss Gareth Southgate during the March international break, with hopes of securing a spot in the final Three Lions squad for the upcoming European Championship.
During the March international break, England is set to contest two matches, facing Brazil on March 23 before a showdown with Belgium on March 26.
