The Portugal national team could suffer serious losses. "Man Utd" head coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer hinted that he does not want to release team leader Bruno Fernandes for the upcoming Portuguese matches at the end of this month. The national team will play against Azerbaijan (March 24) and Serbia (March 27) in the World Cup qualification matches. According to the coach, this would be due to a simple reason. Under UK rules, a person entering the country must quarantine for ten days and thus the player could not participate in important "Man Utd" team matches. "It's not good that due to self-isolation for such a period you lose your player. We pay him a salary, but FIFA does not resolve the situation. So, I think it will be difficult to release him to play in countries on the red list," explained the coach.
