Bruno Fernandes Joins Mohamed Salah & Cesc Fabregas In Exclusive Premier League Club After Stellar Wolves Display

Fernandes Fires Manchester United Into Sixth

Manchester United captain Bruno Fernandes continues to showcase his match-winning influence for the Red Devils. Against relegation-threatened Wolves at Molineux, Fernandes scored twice—including a penalty—and registered an assist as United claimed a 4-1 victory, lifting them to sixth place in the Premier League table.

Jean-Ricner Bellegarde briefly leveled for Wolves before United flexed their attacking muscle in the second half, with contributions from Bryan Mbeumo and Mason Mount complementing Fernandes’ performance.

Exclusive Assist Club: Fernandes Alongside Salah & Fabregas

Fernandes’ creative mastery has earned him a spot in an elite Premier League club with only five members, including Mohamed Salah and Cesc Fabregas. He has now provided assists in five consecutive away games, a feat previously achieved by:

Mohamed Salah (Liverpool, 2023)
Gerard Deulofeu (Everton, 2015)
Cesc Fabregas (Chelsea, 2014-15)
Muzzy Izzet (Leicester, 2003)

His streak began in October with a corner for Harry Maguire against Liverpool and includes key contributions at Nottingham Forest, Tottenham, Crystal Palace, and now Wolves.

Creative Influence: Just Behind Olise & Yamal

Fernandes continues to pull the strings at Old Trafford, registering six assists this season. Only Michael Olise (Bayern Munich, 8) and Lamine Yamal (Barcelona, 7) have more across Europe’s top five leagues.

Additionally, Fernandes has now recorded a goal and assist in the same game for the 16th time in his United career, with only Salah (27) and Kevin De Bruyne (17) ahead. He has also achieved three goal involvements in a single top-flight match on eight occasions, underlining his unmatched attacking contribution.
