Kevin De Bruyne is the fifth player in Premier League history to register 100 assists. The Manchester City playmaker reached the landmark during the first half of Saturday's 4-1 win at Southampton when he set up Erling Haaland for the opening goal.

In the time that has elapsed since, De Bruyne has been far and away the Premier League’s most creative player. He is now the quickest to ever reach 100 assists in the history of the Premier League, doing so in 237 games. That’s 56 quicker than previous record holder Cesc Fabregas, who took 293 games to achieve three figures.

Despite missing around five months of action and making just six appearances in all competitions this season, De Bruyne has been directly involved in five goals with one goal and four assists. Since the start of the 2022/23 season, he’s provided 32 assists in all competitions, eight more than any other Premier League player.
