Bruno Fernandes and David De Gea, two stars for Manchester United, were seen on Saturday having a fancy lunch in Italy.
Pre-season friendly between United and Preston was meant to happen, but it had to be canceled because of a coronavirus outbreak in the United camp.
The club didn’t say which players, if any, have got the virus, even though the season is almost over. This was the case because everyone wished to stay safe.
But the fact that the team got together at Cibo on Saturday shows that some players haven’t had to stay away from each other.
The three of them—De Gea, Fernandes, and another Spanish player on the team—were seen leaving the restaurant together.

Paul Pogba, who has been linked with a move to Paris Saint-Germain, also showed up quickly. After about 15 minutes, he left through the back door. He got there near the end of the meal.
This is where Ed Woodward and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer met in February 2019, when the legendary manager made the decision to stay in charge for good.
People from the club and players already go to Cibo a lot, even though it just opened in late 2018.
Football stars like Solskjaer seem to enjoy it too, since Victor Lindelof, Nemanja Matic, and Andreas Pereira have joined them for pizza or pasta.
United is now getting ready for their last preseason game, which is against Everton. The club doesn’t think there will be any more issues.
