Only 4 penalty misses in his career! - What is Bruno Fernandes' penalty conversion rate? image

Bruno Fernandes was in the limelight for all the wrong reasons over the weekend after the Portuguese midfielder failed to convert a penalty against Aston Villa in the dying moments of the match as Manchester United suffered their first defeat of the ongoing Premier League season.

Since his arrival at Old Trafford in January 2020 from Sporting Lisbon, Fernandes has been the club's designated penalty taker. The Portuguese has taken a total of 23 penalties donning the red shirt in the past one and half years and have converted 21 spot-kicks and has missed only two. His penalty conversion rate is 91.30 per cent in Manchester United colours.

Overall, Fernandes has taken a total of 43 penalties in his senior professional career so far out of which he has converted 39 kicks. He has taken only one penalty for Portugal, in September 2021 in an international friendly against Qatar.
