Bruno Fernandes
May 2026
Bruno Fernandes secured a record-breaking fifth Sir Matt Busby Player of the Year award after leading Manchester United’s push back into the Champions League. The Portuguese midfielder surpassed Cristiano Ronaldo and David de Gea to become the club’s most decorated winner. Fernandes delivered 19 league assists and created 124 chances during an influential campaign under Michael Carrick. With two league matches remaining, the United captain is one assist away from matching the Premier League single-season assist record jointly held by Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne.
