Premier League Awards: Cristiano Ronaldo wins April Premier League Player of the Month

Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo has been named Player of the Month for April – making it two monthly awards this season.

The 37-year-old has won player of the month for a sixth time, now the most of any United player in the competition, overtaking Wayne Rooney’s five.

Ronaldo was in impressive form throughout the month of April, scoring five times in just four matches for the Red Devils, even though it was a tough time for Ralf Rangnick’s side who took just four points from five matches.

In the month of April, Ronaldo scored his 100th Premier League goal, in a 3-1 defeat at Arsenal, while he also registered his 50th club hat-trick in a 3-2 win over Norwich City. Ronaldo notched his fifth goal of the month, equalising to earn a 1-1 draw with Chelsea.

Premier League Awards: Cristiano Ronaldo overtakes Wayne Rooney’s record

It is the second time Ronaldo has won a Player of the Month award this season. In September, he was honoured when he netted a brace on his debut against Newcastle.

Overall, the legendary forward has now received six Premier League Player of the Month awards during his career, placing him level with Steven Gerrard in the all-time list. Only Sergio Aguero and Thierry Henry have won more.

With another award in his trophy cabinet, Ronaldo will now turn his focus to United’s final game of the season – an trip to Selhurst Park to take on Crystal Palace next Sunday.

It will be Ralf Rangnick’s final game in charge before Erik ten Hag takes over in the summer and the Red Devils will likely need to win to prevent dropping down into seventh position and the Europa Conference League next season.
