The 26-year-old has only reached the middle of the crusade when coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer aimed to reinforce the Red Devils’ 4 most sensitive prospects.
And he strengthened them, with Fernandes generating surprising performances to push United to 3rd place in the standings.
Portuguese striker Anthony Martial pushed the gong, getting 35. 5% of the fans’ votes, compared to 34 in French.
Marcus Rashford, a remote third with ten percent.
Mason Greenwood came fourth with 8. 4%, while summer signings Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Harry Maguire scored 3. 8 and 2. 4 respectively.
After winning the prestigious award, Fernandes told United’s official website: “Of course you will win trophies for the team, for the club and for the fan. But obviously, I’m satisfied with the individual trophies.
“I know you can say, ‘Oh, I don’t care’ and all, but it’s still vital for a player.
“You feel smart when you win those kinds of prizes, and I’m no different. Actually, I’m happy.
“I upload this to so many trophies for the club and for the fans because I think they deserve it. “
Fernandes made 22 appearances in all competitions for the Red Devils after sealing his mid-season change.
During that time, he scored 12 goals and got 8 more assists.
And that’s its effect on the team, which suffered only two losses in one’s matches, against Sevilla and Chelsea in the Europa League and FA Cup semi-finals respectively.
Martial, meanwhile, has benefited during his peak prolific season at Old Trafford.
The 24-year-old has scored 23 goals in 48 appearances, while helping another 12 from a more central position than previous campaigns.
Rashford, meanwhile, has 22 hits in all competitions, handling 11 assists in 44 games.
