Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes claimed the prestigious PFA Player of the Year award on August 26, 2025, following an exceptional 2024/25 season. Fernandes surpassed Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne's all-time Premier League assist record with 21 goals, setting up teammates for 21 goals in the process. The 31-year-old also found the back of the net nine times as Manchester United rebounded from a disappointing start to finish third in the league and secure a Champions League return under manager Michael Carrick.
Fernandes echoed his joy, stating that the award from the Professional Footballers’ Association (PFA) is a proud moment, especially considering the rivalry with fellow players. Colombian goalkeeper David Raya, alongside Arsenal teammates Gabriel, William Saliba, Jurrien Timber, and Declan Rice, was named in the team of the year.
