Another Prestigious Award for Bruno Fernandes

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has been crowned the Professional Footballers' Association (PFA) Player of the Year for the 2025/26 season. The Portuguese midfielder beat out Declan Rice, Erling Haaland, Rayan Cherki, Gabriel Magalhães, and David Raya for the prestigious award. This adds another significant individual accolade to Fernandes' collection, having already been named the Premier League Player of the Season and the Football Writers' Association Footballer of the Year.

The Red Devils' playmaker enjoyed a historic season with United, finishing the Premier League campaign with 9 goals and a record-breaking 21 assists. This achievement surpassed the previous record of 20 assists, jointly held by Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne. His final assist came in the decisive match against Brighton, solidifying his undisputed position at the top of the assist charts for a single season.

Beyond his assist record, Fernandes also shattered David Beckham's club record for the most assists by a Manchester United player in a single season – further highlighting his immense impact on the Red Devils' play. With this latest award, Fernandes now holds the most significant individual honors in English football for the season.
