Manchester United have scooped both the Premier League Player and Manager of the Month prizes for October, rewarding the performances of Bryan Mbeumo on the pitch and the results achieved by Ruben Amorim.
Mbeumo has settled in nicely at Old Trafford and produced his most effective spell so far in October, offering a league-high four goal contributions—three strikes of his own and another assist for good measure.
It’s the 26-year-old’s first-ever win of the Premier League Player of the Month trophy and United’s second of the year, following Bruno Fernandes’s triumph back in March. Rasmus Højlund, currently on loan with Napoli, was United’s only winner in 2024.
“Bryan is really direct, and we missed that last year,” United manager Amorim admitted recently.
“You can sense when the ball is going to our defender, he is already running to position. This kind of small things that people don’t see are massive to turn our team into a more dangerous team.”
