Who is Bruno Fernandes?
Bruno Fernandes is a professional footballer who currently plays in the Premier League.
He was born on September 8, 1994 in Maia, Portugal and now lives in the UK.
His love of the sport began during his childhood when Fernandes used to play football on the streets with his older brother Ricardo.
Fernandes tied the knot with his childhood sweetheart, Ana Pinho, in 2015.
The pair now have two children together – a daughter named Matilde and a son named Goncalo.
What does Bruno Fernandes’ celebration mean?
Fernandes’ celebration has become popular with fans since his rise to fame.
Each time he scores, he will perform his “I can’t hear you” celebration which consists of him covering both of his ears with his hands.
It seems he is very much a family man, as even his celebration is a tribute to his children.
Fernandes said: “Matilde, she used to love football. She was the reason why I always did my ‘I can’t hear you’ goal celebration, because whenever we asked her nicely to put her toys away, she would put her hands over her ears and say, ‘What??? I can’t hear you, daddy. I can’t heaaaarrrrr yooooouuu’.”
However, it seems that his daughter Matilde isn’t too happy with her dad when he forgets his celebration.
Fernandes added: “Whenever I would forget to do the celebration, she would never let me hear the end of it.
“‘Why didn’t you do it, Daddy? You forgot about me!’ She watched every match.

Changes to the Premier League for 2024/25
NOTHING stays the same forever.
And that includes the Premier League, which is making a number of tweaks this season.
Team news will now be released 75 MINUTES before kick-off, 15 minutes earlier than had been the case before.
Things could get crowded on the touchline, with the number of substitutes permitted to warm-up boosted from three players per team to FIVE.
There’s also a change to how added time is calculated when a team scores a goal, an update to the ‘multiball’ system and the introduction of semi-automated offsides – but not straight away.
