Inter Milan defender Milan Skriniar has lauded Manchester United playmaker Bruno Fernandes.

Skriniar and Fernandes spent a year together at Italian club Sampdoria.

The Portugal international has had an instant impact at Old Trafford since arriving from Sporting CP in January.

"I think one of my best team-mates was Bruno Fernandes," Skriniar said during a Q&A for Inter's official website.

"I always liked him back from our time together at Sampdoria."
