Jorge Jesus raises concerns over Bruno Fernandes injury

Portugal's manager Jorge Jesus revealed that his stars: Bruno Fernandes and Nuno Mendes are injury doubts ahead of the UEFA Nations League clash with Norway.

The Portuguese medical team identified the two players as their biggest concerns ahead of the match, with Mendes having a chance of recovering in time. Fernandes, however, needed further treatment and recovery time.

Jesus explained that Manchester United's captain had arrived from Old Trafford with an injury and had been playing through pain in their recent matches. The Portugal's manager said he did not want to risk the midfielder and would prefer to have him fully fit for the next match against Denmark.

Fernandes was eventually left out of Portugal's squad for the 2-1 victory over Norway.
