'Let's get rid of INEOS..' Hacker Posts From Bruno Fernandes' X Account! Leaving Man United Furious

As if an FA Cup exit to Brighton & Hove Albion at home wasn't enough, Man United were forced to put out flames caused by a hacking. Bruno Fernandes' X account was hacked, and the hacker made some obscene posts along with ridiculous claims, even calling for a change in the ownership of the club.

Within an hour, the suspicions that Bruno Fernandes' Twitter account hacked were confirmed by the club themselves over a post on X. They requested the fans not to engage or interact with Bruno's posts. However, the damage was already done at that point. Let us examine some of the reactionary responses from the hacker posing as Bruno Fernandes.

Let's get rid of Ineos - Hacker Target Man United Leadership From Bruno Fernandes' X Account

The Portuguese creative wizard Bruno Fernandes played the entire 90 minutes on Sunday evening as his United side fell to Brighton in their FA Cup opener. The captain returned from an injury and even delivered an assist in the 85th minute, but it wasn't enough to overcome the 2 goal deficit they were trying to chase. Shortly after the game, there were incredible posts from Bruno Fernandes' X account. The biggest one of them was “Let's get rid of Ineos," aimed at the club's ownership.

After an incredibly difficult end to the Glazers' era, United thought they were moving into greener pastures as the Man United owner, Sir Jim Ratcliffe, and his Ineos Group bought the club. But there is little success to show for as the new ownership has failed to deliver as well. They appointed and sacked Ruben Amorim in a spell that barely lasted a year. The recruitment is a mess, and they are on the hunt for a new head coach again. A few fans, despite knowing the account of Bruno Fernandes' Twitter account was hacked, were agreeing with the hacker to get Ineos out of the club.

The other sarcastic replies and tweets included reposting United's terrible 7-0 loss at Anfield to Liverpool. Shea Lacey saw a red card on his FA Cup debut on Sunday and issued a public apology, but the hacker through Bruno Fernandes' X account issued a sarcastic response to the apology.

Man United Issues Warning on Bruno Fernandes' X Account

Heading into Sunday night, the club did notice that Bruno Fernandes' X account was compromised. They confirmed the fact and asked the supporters to stop engaging. The hacker playfully replied and even asked his followers to stay alert for any hack. The Manchester United officials were trying to regain control of the account. Fernandes was a regular X user, and the breach of security comes as a serious concern in a time when social media is used for various scamming incidents.
