“[Bruno looks] a special player,” Robson told talkSPORT.

“He’s got a fantastic attitude. I’ve met him a few times, I’ve seen him at the training ground.

“He’s brilliant at getting in little pockets in between the defence and midfield, he gets into these areas, gets himself space and he’s got terrific vision where he sees a pass and performs a pass like Paul Scholes could, and he can score a goal.

“Hopefully he proves me right and goes on to be another Paul Scholes for Manchester United.”

Fernandes and United will not be back in action until April 30 at the very earliest due to the coronavirus outbreak.

However, Premier League action is unlikely to return until the summer.
