Bruno Fernandes has been named the Premier League Player of the Season for the 2025/26 campaign following his performances for Manchester United.

The club announced the development on Saturday, describing Fernandes as a key figure in United’s top-three finish.

“Our skipper has had an outstanding campaign, with his performances an undisputable driving force behind the team’s top-three finish – and qualification for next term’s UEFA Champions League – under Michael Carrick,” the club said.

Fernandes has scored eight league goals and registered 20 assists this season, equalling the Premier League single-season assist record previously held by Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne.
