The 31-year-old has scored eight goals and equalled the record for most assists in a single

campaign alongside Thierry Henry and Kevin De Bruyne with 20.

He wins the award for the first time in his career and becomes the first United player since Nemanja Matic in 2010/11 to receive the honour.

He is the seventh player to win the award at United, with the list of names also including Peter Schmeichel, Dwight Yorke, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Cristiano Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney.

Fernandes had already secured the FWA Footballer of the Year award and now adds another accolade to a historic season after helping United secure Champions League football.

Fernandes has beaten title-winning Arsenal trio David Raya, Gabriel and Declan Rice to the award.

Manchester City duo Erling Haaland, who is on course to win a third successive Premier League Golden Boot award with 27 goals, and Antoine Semenyo also missed out.
