EPL: Semenyo earns Player of the Month nomination for September
The nomination comes on the back of Semenyo's strong start to the 2026/27 Premier League season as Manchester City remain unbeaten.
Ghanaian footballer Antoine Semenyo has received a nomination for September's Premier League Player of the Month award. This recognition follows his impressive start to the 2026/27 season with Manchester City, who are currently unbeaten in the league. Semenyo played in all three of Manchester City's Premier League matches during the month under review, contributing to three wins in a row.
He provided an assist in the 1-0 victory over Coventry City, setting up Erling Haaland for the only goal of the match. Although he did not score or assist in the Manchester derby against United, Semenyo returned to the goal contributions as Manchester City faced Sunderland in an eight-goal match at the Etihad Stadium. He scored two goals and provided one assist, helping his team secure a 5-3 win.
Semenyo joins a competitive field of nominees, which includes Hull City's Mohamed Belloumi, Leeds United's Jayden Bogle, and Liverpool's Alexander Isak and Jeremy Jacquet. Brentford's Kevin Schade is also among those nominated for the award. Interestingly, Semenyo will miss the September-October international break due to a foot injury.
