VIDEO : Saka named PL Player of the Month for March goal of the month

 Bukayo Saka celebrates scoring against Crystal Palace

Bukayo Saka has been named the Premier League’s Player of the Month for March.

It is our forward’s first divisional success of his career, as he becomes the 22nd different player to win the prize in our colours - the most of any other club in the league's history.

Buyako started the month with a goal and assist in our 4-0 win against Everton, and ended it with three goal involvements in Sunday's win over Crystal Palace, which saw him get on the scoresheet twice to become the first player to reach double figures for goals and assists in the division this term.

That scintillating form saw him come out on top of the voting, ahead of teammate Leandro Trossard - who laid on five assists during the month - as well as Newcastle United's Alexander Isak, Liverpool's Mohamed Salah, Brighton & Hove Albion's Alexis Mac Allister and Tyrone Mings of Aston Villa.


It is the second time this season the prize has been handed to one of our squad, with Martin Odegaard receiving the November/December award.
