Bruno Guimaraes has been captain fantastic for Newcastle United this past 2024/25 season.

The Brazil international having led United to a return to Champions League football, as well as a first trophy in 56 years.

Bruno Guimares may not be the quickest Premier League player BUT he is arguably the most committed and determined.

In the 2024/25 season, Bruno Guimaraes started all 38 Premier League matches.

A new BBC Sport report has pointed out some incredible stats.

In the 2024/25 season, Bruno Guimaraes ran 263 miles, the most of any Premier League player across the season in league matches.

Now the United captain has kept his Premier League running man title, running 261 miles this season in the league, fully 19 (NINETEEN) miles more than the next highest player.

Sandro Tonali not too shabby either…

Newcastle’s Bruno Guimaraes covered the most ground this season, running 261 miles (St James’ Park to Wembley is 271 miles).

He retains the award after racking up 263 miles in the competition last season.

Josko Gvardiol, Daniel Munoz, Bryan Mbeumo and Milos Kerkez complete the top five for most distance covered across the Premier League season.

Taking time on the pitch into account (out of players that played over half the available minutes), Guimaraes was pipped by Newcastle team-mate in the list by team-mate Sandro Tonali who covered more ground per 90 minutes than the Brazilian…although Bruno still ran 7.2 miles per 90 minutes!

Tottenham’s Dejan Kulusevski ran harder than any other player this season, covering 7.7 miles per 90 minutes on average.
