Bruno Fernandes is back at Carrington

The 26-year-old has been enjoying some well-deserved downtime since Portugal exited this summer's competition in late June, with Fernando Santos's men narrowly defeated by Belgium, 1-0, in the round of 16.

As with many of United's other tournament players, Fernandes has used social media in the intervening month to share what he's been up to.

The reigning Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year has been busy by the looks of it, not only relaxing with his family but also keeping in shape by training with Porto club Boavista.

He was also presented with the Medal of Merit from his hometown of Maia, but, most importanly, our talismanic midfielder was able to rest ahead of what is sure to be another busy and demanding campaign.

Indeed, Bruno took to Twitter and Instagram this morning to announce his return, stating that his batteries were once again 'fully charged'.
