Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes has been named the Premier League Player of the Season for the 2025/26 campaign following an outstanding individual performance throughout the year.
The Portuguese midfielder scored 8 goals and registered 20 assists in the league — matching the Premier League record for most assists in a single season, previously held by Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne. He still has a chance to break that record outright when United face Brighton in their final league game on Sunday.
Fernandes played a key role in helping Manchester United secure a top-three finish and Champions League qualification under manager Michael Carrick. The award was decided through a combination of fan votes and input from a panel of football experts.
He also won Manchester United's Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year award for a record fifth time this season and was named Footballer of the Year by the Football Writers' Association.
With this latest honour, Fernandes becomes the seventh Manchester United player to win the Premier League Player of the Season award since its introduction in the 1994/95 season.
