Pogba on the other hand has been out injured since the win over Newcastle United on Boxing Day, but was nearing a return to action when the season was postponed due to coronavirus fears.
Fernandes, 25, has now been asked how excited he is to play with the 27-year-old World Cup winner, and his response will leave fans feeling optimistic.

Fernandes told the official United website: “A lot. A lot. I think we have a lot of good players in the midfield.
“Obviously Paul is injured from a long time [ago], and all we know is he has a lot of qualities.
“We can say in football that people normally forget what you do good when you have a mistake. You can do good for 34 games, and one game you do bad and everyone will remember that.
“Paul is coming from a bad moment, because of the situation. When he played also, the club and the team was not good, because the expectations are high for Paul.
Paul is a top player and Manchester United pay a lot for him, and expectations are a lot for him.
“It’s normal when you are in that situation you don’t play like a superstar, because everyone expects from Paul like they expect from [Cristiano] Ronaldo at Juventus or [Lionel] Messi at Barcelona.
“Everyone expects this from Paul in Manchester, because they know he has the qualities for this. Also this is confidence in Paul. The team, we have a lot of confidence in Paul.”Pogba has been linked with a move away from United since the summer, in which Real Madrid failed to match their valuation of the former Juventus midfielder.
Bruno Fernandes has played a starring role since moving to Man Utd
In terms of his current status, Daily Star Sport understands that United want to sell Paul Pogba to avoid a drawn-out transfer saga wrecking their summer plans.
Depending on whether the dates of the transfer window are changed, Pogba and Fernandes might only have a few weeks together as team-mates on the pitch before the former leaves.
United currently sit fifth in the table and three points behind fourth-placed Chelsea, and their current spot could be good enough to secure Champions League qualification should Manchester City fail in their appeal of the two-year ban placed on them by Uefa.
