Manchester United’s young stars Rasmus Hojlund and Kobbie Mainoo have scooped the Premier League Player Of The Month and Goal Of The Month awards respectively for February 2024.
Hojlund won the Player of the Month award for his sensational form in February where he scored 5 goals and provided an assist in 4 matches. During the month, he also became the youngest player in the history of the Premier League to score in six straight matches.
Hojlund‘s Premier League award adds to the Manchester United Player of the Month for February award he had already claimed.
What a month for Rasmus Hojlund! 💫

Mainoo was awarded the goal of the month award for his sensational late winner against Wolves. The young United academy graduate produced a stunning solo effort to seal a 4-3 win for his side at the Molineux stadium.
This is the second time this season that Manchester United players will win both the player and the goal of the month awards, after Harry Maguire and Alejandro Garnacho in November 2023. However, United were unable to complete the clean sweep of the awards as they did in November, with Erik Ten Hag failing to win the Coach of the Month award.
The coach’s award, instead, went to Mikel Arteta of Arsenal, whose side had an impetuous February, winning all 4 of their matches, scoring 18 goals and conceding just 2.
