RUBEN Amorim fears Bruno Fernandes will be out for “a while” after the Manchester United captain was injured during Sunday’s 2-1 defeat against Aston Villa.

Fernandes has started every Premier League game this season, but the Portugal midfielder is unlikely to extend that run any further following his injury setback at Villa Park.

The 31-year-old initially played on after pulling up with what appeared to be a hamstring issue just before the break, but he did not return for the second half.

Amorim ruled his influential star out of the Boxing Day clash against Newcastle, with severe doubts about his availability for the rest of the Christmas and New Year schedule.

“It’s a soft tissue. I think he’s going to lose some games. I don’t know for sure, so let’s see,” Amorim said.
