Bruno Fernandes tops stat he already dominates in the Premier League

Bruno Fernandes has been the king of chances created in the Premier League. According to Opta data, the Portuguese midfielder has led this statistic for the past three seasons:

1. 2022-23: 119 
2. 2023-24: 114
3. 2024-25: 91

And he is already first in the current season, with 12.

Why does this matter? Bruno is Manchester United’s main technical reference. He’s the one expected to deliver the decisive pass, the unexpected play.

And when he steps onto the pitch, the team’s confidence grows. On Sunday (14), in the derby against Manchester City, the midfielder will be one of United’s main assets.

The clash promises to be exciting. Both rivals are under pressure, having stumbled in the first three rounds of the Premier League.

Knocked out early from the English League Cup, United is coming off a win over Burnley, their first in the PL.

And they will try to surprise their rivals away from home.
