Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes admits resuming the season in front of empty stands will be difficult for him.

By his own admission, Fernandes thrives off the support of those on the terraces.

He conceded to Sporting CP's media channel: "It is difficult. I have been following the Bundesliga and it is very strange. It will be a very difficult period not being able to have the support of families and fans, but first of all is the health of everyone.

"I hope that as soon as possible the stadiums may be full. I am a person of strong emotions and I like good environments."
