Premier League 2024-25 assist leaders: Salah chasing record, second PL Playmaker Award

The Premier League Playmaker of the Year award is a newer accolade celebrating the single-season leader for assists. And this season, there’s a strong chance for a changing of the guard in the single-season record books.

Mohamed Salah’s 17 assists with a couple of months to play put him well within sight of the Premier League record shared by Kevin De Bruyne (2019-20) and Thierry Henry (2002-03). However, it’s now 18 assists with a couple of weeks to play, and the Egyptian needs to get hot, quick.

De Bruyne’s reign as chief chance distributor sees him the winner of three of the seven all-time Playmaker of the Year awards since the trophy was instituted in the 2017-18 season.

But KDB is 11 assists off the top thanks to a long absence and the brilliant early season of Liverpool living legend Mohamed Salah, who is seeking his second Playmaker of the Year award.

Ollie Watkins led the way last season after usual suspect De Bruyne missed half of the season and “only” rung up 10 assists to Watkins’ 13.

De Bruyne had made winning the award a habit and had hope of reclaiming the Premier League Playmaker Award, but the stars of this run have been Salah, Saka, Mikkel Damsgaard, Heung-min Son, and USMNT star Antonee Robinson.

Premier League Playmaker of the Year award winners, all-time

2017-18: Kevin De Bruyne, Manchester City — 16 assists

Who has the most assists in Premier League history?

Manchester United stalwart Ryan Giggs seemingly forever and racked up 162 assists in Premier League play.

De Bruyne is second with... 119. So, yeah, the record is safe.

Giggs’ 632 PL appearances are third all-time behind Gareth Barry and James Milner.
