Bruno Fernandes makes Premier League history.

TPO - Bruno has officially surpassed Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne to become the player with the most assists in a single Premier League season.

MU made history in the tournament.

The Portuguese midfielder delivered the cross for Patrick Dorgu to score against Brighton in the final round of the 2025/26 Premier League season. This was Bruno's 21st assist, surpassing Henry and De Bruyne to set a new record. He also contributed a goal, helping Manchester United end the season with a resounding 3-0 victory.

Previously, Bruno was named the Premier League's best player of the 2025/26 season. The midfielder, born in 1993, was also voted by his teammates for the best player award at MU this season. Bruno has surpassed a number of formidable names, especially Declan Rice and David Raya, to reach the pinnacle in terms of individual performance.

The Portuguese international has created nearly 150 chances for his teammates this season, 76 of which were high-scoring opportunities. If Manchester United's strikers had been more clinical in their finishing, Bruno's assist tally wouldn't have stopped at 21. This translates to an average of 3.8 key passes per game, a figure very few players achieve in a single season.

The Manchester United captain contributed an additional 9 goals in the 2025/26 Premier League season. No player in the Premier League this season has been involved in more goals than Bruno. The 1994-born midfielder's achievement is even more impressive considering he spent half the season playing in a deeper midfield role under Ruben Amorim.

A year ago, Manchester United considered selling Bruno. Several teams in the Saudi Pro League wanted to sign the Red Devils' captain for between 75 and 100 million euros. MU was torn between wanting to sell and wanting to keep him, thus giving Bruno the final decision on whether to stay or leave. Ultimately, the Portuguese international decided to stay and fulfill his unfinished dream at Old Trafford.

After the 2025/26 season, MU will forget about selling Bruno. When Michael Carrick is appointed as the permanent manager, the likelihood of Bruno staying and continuing as MU's captain will increase.
