Antoine Semenyo, an attacker for Manchester City, has been named the February EA SPORTS Player of the Month, capping an impressive first full month at the club following his January move from AFC Bournemouth.
This marks Semenyo’s first time winning the award after scoring three goals and providing one assist in five Premier League appearances during February. He found the net against Tottenham Hotspur, Fulham FC, and Leeds United.
“This is a brilliant moment for me. To win the Premier League Player of the Month award so soon after joining City is something I’ll never forget,” Semenyo said on the club’s website.
“My focus now is on continuing to improve and helping City achieve the best possible results. We have so much to play for, and I am really excited about this final period of the season.”
The Ghana international has made an immediate impact at his new club, impressing in multiple roles, including on both wings, as a forward, and in midfield.
Semenyo is the first Manchester City player other than Erling Haaland to win the award since Raheem Sterling in December 2021. Haaland himself has won the award four times, most recently in September this season.
Meanwhile, Semenyo becomes just the third Ghanaian to win the award after Tony Yeboah (March and September 1995) for Leeds and Andre Ayew (August 2015) for Swansea City.
