September 30, (THEWILL) – Marcus Rashford, the Manchester United forward, has been named the English Premier League’s September 2022 Player of the Month after the 24-year-old two appearances where he contributed to all four of United’s goals.
While he provided the assist in the 1-0 victory over Leicester, in the 3-1 victory over table-topping Arsenal, he scored twice and provided an assist, earning him the POTM award for the first time since January 2019.
Following Erling Haaland, who won the accolade past month, Rashford beat Philip Billing, Kevin De Bruyne, Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, Alex Iwobi, and Jacob Ramsey in a public poll to clinch the honour.
Speaking after winning, Rashford said: “It’s a good feeling. We didn’t start the season so strongly so to get four wins on the bounce is really good.
“It’s still fairly new with the manager and we’ve got much better at doing the things he wants us to. But there are still a lot of steps to take and we’re all looking forward to doing that together.”
