Bruno Fernandes has etched his name in Manchester United history, becoming only the sixth player to record 50 assists in the Premier League for the club.

The Portuguese playmaker delivered a stellar performance against Leicester City, scoring once and providing two assists in United’s commanding 3-0 victory on Sunday evening.

With this achievement, Fernandes joins an elite group of Red Devils legends who have reached the 50-assist mark, including Ryan Giggs (162), Wayne Rooney (93), David Beckham (80), Paul Scholes (55), and Eric Cantona (51).

Despite the victory, Manchester United remains in 13th place in the Premier League table with 37 points from 29 matches, making their upcoming fixtures even more crucial in the race for a stronger finish this season.
