To some footballers, recording an assist is an even better feeling than scoring a goal.
So, with that fact in mind, we have taken a look at the stats to discover the five players with most assists in Europe’s top five leagues during the 2024-25 term.
And next season, we will be back with more sports betting online tips to help with your bets on football!
Omar Marmoush (Eintracht Frankfurt/Manchester City), Mohamed Amoura (Wolfsburg) & Jacob Murphy (Newcastle) – 12 assists
Three players sit on 12 assists for the campaign, with Marmoush the top scorer among them thanks to his 22 goals combined for Eintracht and City. Ten of the Egyptian’s assists came in the Bundesliga, two fewer than Wolfsburg ace Amoura – who also netted 10 times. Murphy’s output at Newcastle in 2024-25 was quite extraordinary, with eight goals to go with his 12 assists, and it was quite a shock to not see him named in Thomas Tuchel’s latest England squad.
Florian Wirtz (Bayer Leverkusen) – 13 assists
You may have seen Wirtz’s name everywhere on social media of late, as he is being persistently linked with a move to Liverpool. But it is understandable that the English champions are so determined to sign a playmaker of his quality. Wirtz is Leverkusen’s creator-in-chief, evidenced by his overall record of 65 assists in 197 matches for Die Werkself. Still only 22 years of age, the footballing world is the German’s oyster!
Lamine Yamal (Barcelona) – 15 assists
It feels weird to suggest that a 17-year-old could be the best footballer on the planet in the modern era, but here we are. Yamal’s achievements at Barca in 2024-25 defy all logic and it is scary to think how good he will go on to be. As well as being an assist machine, the Spaniard scored 10 goals in La Liga, striking both home and away vs Real Madrid. A Ballon d’Or winner in the making if ever there was one.
Michael Olise (Bayern Munich) – 18 assists
As debut campaigns go, you won’t see many better than Olise’s with Bayern in the Bundesliga. After joining from Crystal Palace in the summer, the Frenchman took to his new home like a duck to water, orchestrating the attack from the get-go. Amazingly, Olise both assisted and scored in the final four Bundesliga matches of the campaign, while he tallied eight assists in the last eight games of 2024-25. His partnership with Harry Kane is one to be feared by all the other top teams in Europe!
Mohamed Salah (Liverpool) – 19 assists
Salah just pips Olise to the 2024-25 Assist King crown. The Liverpool superstar was almost unplayable for the majority of the season and he recorded a goal contribution in 26 of the Reds’ first 30 top-flight matches of the campaign. Salah failed to equal the division record of 20 assists in a single term, but he won’t care one bit, as he is now a two-time Premier League winner – one with a shiny new contract at Anfield.
