Kevin De Bruyne has suggested that the Premier League denied him an assist record that has now been claimed by Bruno Fernandes.
The Manchester City midfielder reportedly believes several of his final passes during a previous campaign were not officially awarded as assists, costing him what could have been a record-breaking tally.
Bruno Fernandes has since set a new benchmark for assists in a single Premier League season, surpassing long-standing records previously associated with Thierry Henry and De Bruyne.
De Bruyne’s comments have reignited debate over how assists are defined and recorded in the Premier League, with marginal decisions often influencing official statistics.
