World Cup: Most Assists

What you need to know

This market is asking: which single player will finish the 2026 FIFA World Cup with the most assists — meaning passes or touches that directly lead to a teammate scoring a goal? A 'Yes' for any listed player means they end the tournament having set up more goals than anyone else in the competition. The three players shown — Lamine Yamal (Spain), Bruno Fernandes (Portugal), and Hakan Çalhanoğlu (Turkey) — are each priced around 11–13%, meaning the market sees no clear favorite and expects the winner to most likely be someone not even listed among the top options. At the end of the 2026 World Cup — final included — FIFA's official assist statistics decide the winner. Whoever has the highest assist count wins the market. If two or more players are tied on assists, the tiebreaker goes first to who completed more total passes during the tournament, and if that is still tied, alphabetical order by last name decides it. One important edge case: if the tournament is cancelled or has no official result declared by August 2, 2026 at 11:59 PM ET, the market resolves to 'Other' rather than any named player. None of the provided news headlines relate to the 2026 FIFA World Cup or any of the players in this market. There is no relevant recent news to point to here. The kinds of developments worth watching would be: which teams advance deep into the tournament (more games mean more chances for assists), any player injuries, and which creative midfielders or wingers are standing out as the competition progresses. This is genuinely one of the hardest sports statistics to predict in advance. Assists depend on how many games a player's team plays — a team eliminated early gives its players far fewer chances. They also depend on team tactics, form, injuries, and sometimes pure luck. The market reflects this honestly: the top-priced player sits at just 13%, meaning the crowd thinks there is an 87% chance someone else leads the chart. With many strong playmakers across dozens of nations, the field is wide open and real uncertainty is spread across a large number of possible outcomes.

How this resolves

Resolves August 3, 2026

This market will resolve to the player who records the most assists through all rounds of the 2026 FIFA World Cup competition. In the event of a tie, this market will resolve according to the official leader as determined by FIFA World Cup rules. If multiple leaders are announced then this market will resolve to the player who completed more passes during the 2026 FIFA World Cup. If a tie still persists, this market will resolve to the player whose listed last name comes first alphabetically. If the 2026 FIFA World Cup competition is cancelled, postponed after August 2, 2026, 11:59 PM ET, or there is otherwise no official leader declared within that timeframe, this market will resolve to “Other”. The resolution source for this market will be official information from FIFA; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.
