Recently, B Fei's brother Ricardo was interviewed by the BBC, and he talked about how B Fei grew into a star who can play at Manchester United.
B Fee is working hard to lead Manchester United to rebuild, while his older brother Ricciardo is fighting for upgrade in the ninth-level Southern Combo League. 30-year-old B Fee leads Manchester United at the Old Trafford Stadium, which can accommodate 75,000 people (known as the "Dream Theater"), while his older brother Ricciardo plays on a stadium nicknamed the "Tree Theater" in West Sussex, 240 miles away. Rofe FC is located in Horsham at home, with an average audience of 133 last season, named after it is surrounded by trees.
Although the Fernandez brothers play at both ends of the English Football Pyramid, they have many similarities. They all wore No. 8 jerseys, played in the midfield, served as captains of their respective clubs, and both scored wonderful goals.
Ricardo recalled: "He saw that goal from me and the video went viral online, which was great for me." Ricardo scored a goal against West Ford Town in April 2024, helping the team win 2-0, a goal that is still widely circulated on social media today.
Ricardo said: "We pass the ball very similarly to the style of the game. He played at Old Trafford in the Dream Theater, and I played at Rofe FC in the Tree Theater. Our dream when we were kids was that both of us could be professional players, and he did it, and I was very happy to enjoy it with him."
"He always likes to do some tricks and steal, and controlling his determination is not easy, and I have to try to protect him. He always wants to play with older players, which is why he can reach the peak."
Ricardo himself moved to the UK from Portugal in 2015 and worked at East Surrey Hospital. Five years later, B Fee joined Manchester United. While B Fee's goal is better known, the one Ricardo vs. West Ford Town has earned millions of views online.
Luo Fei FC set a record on the non-league day in March this year, with more than 500 fans coming to watch the game, and he also signed autographs for fans after the game. There are supporters groups now in Africa and Portugal, and Rofi FC club officials have noticed new fans joining each week.
Head coach Jack Mundy said: "I signed him twice and he scored some goals similar to B Fee. The only difference is that B Fee plays at Old Trafford, and Ricardo is here."
