Leroy Sane has claimed the premier League player of the month award for October after helping Manchester City to three wins from three games throughout the month.

The 21-year-old was a formidable force for pep Guardiola's side as he provided a goal and an assist in each of their three games, including a stunning strike against West Brom to set them on course for a 3-2 victory.

His contributions in front of goal went unmatched throughout October to make him a deserved winner while Pep Guardiola's 100 per cent record also saw him collect the manager of the month award for a second consecutive month.

Sane beat off the challenge from five other players to win the award, including his own team-mate Kevin De Bruyne, Arsenal defender Nacho Monreal, Brighton's Glenn Murray, Burnley goalkeeper Nick Pope and Crystal Palace star Wilfried Zaha.
