Bruno Fernandes’ phenomenal season continues with stunning new club record

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has set a remarkable new club record, as he eyes the Premier League Player of the Year award.

Captain fantastic

Fernandes has led the charge this season, playing a crucial role in United’s qualification for the Champions League.

While he didn’t get on the scoresheet or officially register an assist in Sunday’s 3-2 victory over Liverpool, he was still instrumental, delivering the ball that led to Benjamin Sesko’s finish.

Fernandes boasts eight goals and 19 assists. He is just two assists shy of breaking the Premier League record (20), which is held jointly by Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne.

During the 3-1 win over Aston Villa in March, Fernandes surpassed David Beckham to become the United player with the most assists in a single Premier League season. Beckham had previously held the record with 15 assists in the 1999/2000 campaign.

Statman Dave has now revealed that Fernandes leads every United player, past or present, in yet another elite category.

Unmatched record
