Manchester United midfielder Bruno Fernandes has tipped the club to be strong contenders in the Champions League next season.

Fernandes, who has captained the Red Devils for the majority of the season, believes the Red Devils possess the quality to challenge any team in Europe's elite competition next season.

Manchester United’s 4-1 win over Chelsea in the Premier League on Thursday confirmed their place in the Champions League next season.

The Portugal international said that Erik ten Tag’s team has all it takes to challenged for Europe’s most coveted title as they will come against teams from different leagues;

“Every team that competes in the Premier League can compete in the Champions League if you do the right things,” he said.

"Obviously, the Champions League is always a different scenario because you play against the Spanish team that plays really well on the ball, you play against the Italian teams that are really strong, and you play against the German teams that we all know are clinical.

“You always find there are some teams that everyone calls the ‘small ones," and they surprise everyone when you go away to play against them, so it’s a beautiful place to be.”
