Manchester United's current squad comprises talented players, but behind each star is a strong and supportive partner who plays a vital role in their success.

These wives and girlfriends, often called WAGs, come from diverse backgrounds and have unique stories to tell.

From models and influencers to entrepreneurs and stay-at-home moms, they are integral to the team's success.

They provide emotional support, keep their partners grounded, and inspire them to pursue charitable causes.

While they may not always be in the spotlight, these women are the ones who keep their partners focused, motivated, and happy, both on and off the pitch.

Some include Anna Pinho, Bruno Fernandes' wife. The versatile midfielder owes much of his success to her, having supported him throughout his career. The Portuguese midfielder's wife was born on 18 April 1994. Interestingly, she attended the same school in Boavista as Bruno, where they first met and became friends.

They provide a listening ear, a comforting presence, and a sense of stability essential for navigating the pressures of top-flight football. By offering encouragement and helping their partners put things into perspective, WAGs help them manage stress, build confidence, and maintain a healthy work-life balance.

In addition to emotional support, WAGs also play a crucial role in helping Man United players stay connected to their roots and pursue their passions outside of football. They remind them of their families and friends, encouraging them to stay humble and avoid getting caught up in the glamour and hype surrounding the club.
