Premier League confirm winners for Player & Manager of the Month awards for September 2024
The Premier League has announced the winners of the Player and Manager of the Month awards for September 2024. Chelsea attacker Cole Palmer has been named the Premier League Player of the Month, while Blues manager Enzo Maresca has won the Manager of the Month award.
Palmer earned the Player of the Month accolade after a standout month, highlighted by his remarkable four-goal performance in just 21 minutes against Brighton & Hove Albion.
This feat made him the first player in Premier League history to score four goals in the first half of a match.
Cold performances, clinical finishes.

Additionally, Palmer provided an assist in Chelsea’s 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace and found the back of the net in their 3-0 victory over West Ham United.
His contributions led the division in goal involvements for September. Palmer had previously won the Premier League’s Goal of the Month award in August for his impressive lob during Chelsea’s 6-2 win over Wolves.
Other nominees for the Player of the Month award included Harvey Barnes, Luis Diaz, Gabriel Magalhaes, Ryan Gravenberch, Raul Jimenez, Dwight McNeil, and Ollie Watkins, but Palmer emerged victorious for the second time in his Chelsea career. He also received England’s 2023/24 Player of the Year prize earlier in the week.

On the managerial front, Enzo Maresca claimed his first Premier League Manager of the Month award. He led Chelsea to an unbeaten run in September, securing three wins and one draw. Maresca triumphed over stiff competition from Mikel Arteta, Unai Emery, Marco Silva, and Arne Slot to win the award.
He told the Premier League’s website: “We had a very good month. We all need people around us to make things better. I’m very grateful to have all of them [his staff].
