admin

Chelsea duo Enzo Maresca and Cole Palmer have both won Premier League awards for their performances during September.

Maresca was named as the Manager of the Month after leading the Blues to wins over Bournemouth, West Ham and Brighton, following a 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace.

Palmer was announced on Friday as the Premier League’s latest Player of the Month. The 22-year-old produced an assist and five goals during September, including a stunning display in a 4-2 win against Brighton that saw him find the net four times.

Maresca is the first Chelsea boss to win the Premier League’s Manager of the Month prize since Thomas Tuchel in October 2021.

Meanwhile, Palmer has now won two Player of the Month awards in 2024, having earlier been recognised for his standout performances in April.

Palmer received his September Player of the Month while on international duty with England.

It was his second award of the week after he had earlier been confirmed as the England Men’s Player of the Year.
