When quizzed by Sky Sports' Laura Woods, Fernandes couldn't help but smile when he sang the version.
He says: "Bruno, Bruno, Bruno... he comes from Sporting like Cristiano.
"He goes left, he goes right - makes defenders look s****.
"He's our Portuguese magnifico."
Fernandes, with a huge grin on his face, adds: "In the game is better when the fans sing."
The midfielder, who contributed to 15 goals for Sporting before heading to Old Trafford, notched another assist against LASK in the Europa League on Thursday.
And it led to former player Owen Hargreaves comparting him to Man City ace Kevin De Bruyne.
