The Uruguayan midfielder from Rubro-Negro Carioca has reached 10 assists and 11 goals in just 18 games of the national championship in 2025, an unprecedented feat in the records of Opta (since 2012).
But the most impressive: he achieved the famous “double-double” already on the 21st round, being the fastest in the history of the BrasileirĂŁo with 20 clubs to reach this mark.
🔸 21 direct participations in goals
🔸 1 G/A every 64 minutes on the field
🔸 35 decisive passes so far
This is the second time that Arrascaeta has reached double digits in goals and assists in the same edition of the championship — the first was in 2019 (13G and 14A). No other player has achieved this twice in the Opta era.
