Bukayo Saka wins first Premier League player of the month award

Arsenal forward Bukayo Saka has won the Premier League’s Player of the Month award for March.

Saka was among a six-man shortlist for the award alongside Alexander Isak, Alexis Mac Allister, Tyrone Mings, Mohamed Salah, and Arsenal teammate Leandro Trossard.

This is the first time Saka will be winning the award. He moved into double figures for both goals and assists in March, netting his tenth goal of the campaign in a 4-0 win over Everton to kick off the month, a game in which he also bagged an assist.

It is the second time this season the prize has been handed to an Arsenal player, with captain Martin Odegaard receiving the November/December award.
