Bruno Fernandes: Major update emerges on United star’s future Manchester United skipper Bruno Fernandes created history this season by registering the most assists for the club in a Premier League campaign. The Portuguese superstar broke David Beckham’s record in the process and now has 16 assists to his name in the league.

Fernandes has registered 106 goals and 103 assists in 320 appearances, and is only the third player after Wayne Rooney and Ryan Giggs to register 100 goals and 100 assists for the Red Devils. In a season marred by managerial turmoil, Fernandes has once again been the Red Devils’ talisman and has been leading from the front. The Portuguese maestro has been United’s go-to man ever since arriving at the Theatre of Dreams from Sporting in January 2020.
However, the player’s contract expires in just over a year and his future remains subject to speculation at the moment.

The Portuguese has registered eight goals and 17 assists in 30 appearances across competitions for the Red Devils, all but one of which have been starts.
