Record-Breaking Assists in a Premier League Season

Bruno Fernandes is aiming for the Premier League’s assist record as the season approaches its end.

This season, Fernandes has made 16 assists in the Premier League for Manchester United, a number achieved by only a few players in history.

The Portugal international has also set a new club record for the most Premier League assists in a season for Manchester United, breaking David Beckham’s previous record of 15 assists during a recent win against Aston Villa.

With eight games left to play, Fernandes needs just five more assists to take the single-season record.

The current record is held by former Arsenal player Thierry Henry, who recorded 20 assists in the 2002/03 season, and Kevin De Bruyne from Manchester City, who matched it in 2019/20.
