Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo won the Player of the Month award for the month of September in the English Premier League after his brilliance with the "Red Devils" and scoring three goals in three matches last month.

The Portuguese striker scored a double against Newcastle in his first appearance in the United shirt after returning to the club, and then scored the first goal in the West Ham match at the London Stadium a week later.

Ronaldo won the award at the expense of the Egyptian Mohamed Salah, the giant of Liverpool, who was all expected to win the award in front of his remarkable brilliance and scoring goals until some went to nominate him to be the best player in the world at the end of the season if he continued at the same pace of performance.
