Manchester City striker Erling Haaland has been named the Premier League Player of the Month for September 2025, following a blistering run of form that saw him score five goals and provide one assist in just three matches.
The Norwegian forward was in unstoppable form throughout the month, finding the net against both Arsenal and Manchester United, as Pep Guardiola’s side bounced back from a slow start to the campaign.
Speaking to Manchester City’s official media after receiving the award, Haaland expressed his delight and gratitude:
“I’m really happy to win this award for a fourth time. It always means a lot, so thank you to everyone who voted for me. I also want to thank my teammates, the coaches, and all the staff — we do everything together.
September was an important month for us as a team. We played some really good football, stayed unbeaten, and got important wins for our fans. I’m happy I could help the team with goals and performances.
Now we just keep going, keep working hard every day, because there’s a tough schedule after the international break. Hopefully, we can keep the same level and win even more games.”
The 25-year-old now sits top of the Premier League scoring chart with nine goals, ahead of Bournemouth’s Antoine Semenyo and Jaidon Anthony. Across all competitions, Haaland has already scored 12 goals in nine appearances this season, further cementing his reputation as one of the most lethal forwards in world football.
This latest honour brings Haaland’s tally of Premier League Player of the Month awards to four, placing him among elite company with legends such as Thierry Henry, Alan Shearer, and Frank Lampard. Only eight players in league history have achieved the feat more times.
Meanwhile, Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner scooped the Manager of the Month award after leading his side through an unbeaten September, which included a hard-fought draw against Sunderland and impressive victories over West Ham United and defending champions Liverpool.
It is Crystal Palace’s first Manager of the Month award since April 2014, when Tony Pulis received the honour. Glasner edged out Mikel Arteta (Arsenal), Pep Guardiola (Manchester City), and Régis Le Bris (Sunderland) to claim the prize.
