The 2024/25 Premier League season has showcased an exciting mix of established stars and emerging talents dominating the creative stats. Here’s a breakdown of the top players creating the most chances this season, as per Fotmob.
1) Cole Palmer (Chelsea) – 47 chances (2.9 per 90)
Chelsea’s rising star has been nothing short of sensational. With 11 goals and six assists already, Palmer’s creativity is driving Chelsea’s attacking force. His numbers suggest the sky’s the limit for this young talent.
2) Bukayo Saka (Arsenal) – 42 chances (3.0 per 90)
The “Starboy” continues to climb the ranks. After finishing fourth last season, Saka is poised for another top finish with his consistent creativity.
3) Youri Tielemans (Aston Villa) – 39 chances (2.4 per 90)
Having struggled for game time earlier in the season, Tielemans has found his groove under Unai Emery. His influence is now pivotal in Villa’s midfield.
4) Bruno Fernandes (Manchester United) – 38 chances (2.4 per 90)
The Manchester United captain remains one of the league’s top creators. If Fernandes finds top form under Ruben Amorim, he could help United push up the table.
5) Dejan Kulusevski (Tottenham) – 37 chances (2.5 per 90)
Spurs’ standout player this season, Kulusevski has been instrumental in Ange Postecoglou’s system. Without him, Spurs might be struggling even more.
6) Leif Davis (Ipswich) – 37 chances (2.2 per 90)
The Ipswich defender has been a surprise entry in this list, proving his value in set-pieces and open play.
7) Anthony Gordon (Newcastle) – 36 chances (2.5 per 90)
Despite summer transfer rumors, Gordon has been a crucial creative outlet for Newcastle. His tally of assists could rise if his teammates convert more of his chances.
8) Jarrod Bowen (West Ham) – 36 chances (2.1 per 90)
A contender for West Ham’s greatest Premier League player ever, Bowen’s contributions remain vital for the Hammers’ success.
9) Bernardo Silva (Manchester City) – 34 chances (2.2 per 90)
Though City’s overall performances have dipped, Silva’s numbers underline his continued importance in Guardiola’s setup.
10) Andreas Pereira (Fulham) – 33 chances (2.9 per 90)
Fulham’s playmaker continues to fly under the radar. Linked with several big clubs, Pereira remains an underrated asset in the Premier League.
Honorable Mention:
Dwight McNeil (Everton) also has 33 chances created but averages 2.6 per 90, placing him just outside the top 10.
This season’s creative landscape highlights a blend of rising stars like Palmer and stalwarts like Fernandes. With plenty of games left, it’ll be fascinating to see how this leaderboard evolves.
