Bruno Fernandes has made an instant impact with his new employers since making his debut for the club last month. United have found the spark they have been missing for quite some time in the Portuguese midfielder.

He has scored three goals in three games for the Red Devils since scoring his maiden goal for the club in his first appearance at the Old Trafford last week.

His brilliant strike in the 31st minute of the game was also the 900th away goal for Manchester United in the Premier League, making them the first club to reach the eye-catching figure.

It is only natural that a player of his calibre is going to see his stock rise as the season progresses. Now that he is running the show in the midfield in the absence of Paul Pogba, can Fernandes prove to be the turning point in determining the Frenchman's future at Old Trafford?

Pogba has only played seven games in the top-flight this season and has just two assists to his name. Though injuries have kept him away from the action for the better part of the season, it seems that the constant interest from clubs like Real Madrid and Juventus has been affecting his performances on the pitch.

Now that United have found a midfield linchpin in Fernandes, his performances could act as a catalyst to finally put an end to Pogba's transfer saga.
