Bruno Fernandes excelled again this season, providing two assists in Manchester United‘s match against Aston Villa today.
He played a key role in opening the scoring at Old Trafford, delivering a set piece that was converted by Casemiro.
Fernandes also set up Matheus Cunha with a precise through ball, allowing him to score calmly into the corner. With these contributions, Fernandes now has 15 and 16 assists in the Premier League this season, far ahead of the next player, Rayan Cherki, who has 8.
These latest assists helped Fernandes break the club’s record for the most assists in a single Premier League season, previously held by David Beckham, who recorded 15 assists during the 1999-2000 season.
Fernandes is just four assists away from matching the all-time Premier League record, which stands at 20. This record is shared by Thierry Henry (2002-03) and Kevin De Bruyne (2019-20).
