The 2025/26 Premier League season has produced a striking trend in chance creation, with one player pulling far ahead of the competition.
Bruno Fernandes has created 120 chances this season. That figure is not just leading the chart, it has opened up a massive gap over every other player in the league.
The next closest name is Dominik Szoboszlai with 65 chances. The difference between first and second stands at 55, which underlines the level of dominance.
Further down the list, Anton Stach and Declan Rice both sit on 61. Florian Wirtz follows with 60, while Bukayo Saka and Enzo Fernández have 57 each.
The list continues with Rayan Cherki on 54, Cody Gakpo on 50, and Pedro Neto on 49.
Fernandes’ numbers have also made history for Manchester United. His 120 chances created is the highest by any United player in a single Premier League season since records began in 2003/04.
The scale of the gap has become the main talking point. While several players are clustered closely behind, none have come near the league leader’s output.
With games still left in the season, the focus now shifts to how far Fernandes can extend this record, and whether anyone can close even a fraction of the distance.
