The Premier League Player of the Month award for October has Erling Haaland as a nominee.

Just last month, the Norwegian won the title for the fourth time and is now attempting to defend it.

He is nominated for three goals in our three league games in October, including the game-winning goals in our wins against Everton and Brentford.

In the 1-0 victory over the Bees, he turned his defender, deflected another, and crashed into the net for his first league goal of the month.

To give us all three points against Everton, he promptly followed it up with a powerful header and sweeping finish from 15 yards out after the international break.

All of that helped Haaland have a fantastic start to the 2025–26 season, scoring 24 goals in 15 club and national team games.

With 11 of those goals coming in the Premier League, he leads Brentford's Igor Thiago and Bournemouth's Antoine Semenyo by five goals early in the Golden Boot competition.

With 96 goals in 106 Premier League games to date, our guy is still among the most lethal strikers the English top division has ever seen.

This month, Haaland is one of eight nominees.


Matty Cash of Aston Villa, Bruno Guimaraes of Newcastle, Eli Junior Kroupi of Bournemouth, Bryan Mbeumo of Manchester United, Nordi Mukiele of Sunderland, Igor Thiago of Brentford, and Jurrien Timber of Arsenal are also in the running.

Earlier this month, the Magpies fell 2-1 against Brighton, but the German international's incredible flick tied the score.

However, the summer acquisition, who has scored six goals for United since joining from Stuttgart in the summer, grabbed attention at the Amex Stadium with a superb improvised finish from Lewis Miley's low cross.

Antoine Semenyo and Justin Kluivert of Bournemouth, Zian Flemming and Loum Tchaouna of Burnley, Chelsea's Moises Caicedo, Aston Villa's Emi Buendia, and Mo Salah of Liverpool are also on the shortlist.

Supporters of the Magpies may cast their votes for Woltemade by visiting here, and voting will begin at 1 pm GMT on Thursday, October 30. The winner will be revealed on Friday, November 7th at 1 pm GMT.

Lisandro Martinez returns to first-team training, giving Manchester United a significant conditioning boost ahead of their Premier League matchup against Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Lisandro Martinez has returned to first-team training for Manchester United, giving them a significant fitness boost ahead of their Premier League matchup against Nottingham Forest on Saturday.

Due to a serious knee injury sustained during a Premier League match against Crystal Palace, the Argentina international has not played for the 20-time English champions since early February.

However, Martinez has been speeding up his recuperation in recent weeks, and on Wednesday, the former Ajax centre-back was allowed to rejoin his teammates for training.

It is extremely doubtful that Martinez will play for Man United when they travel to Forest on Saturday, but the 27-year-old might return to the team for the match against Tottenham Hotspur on November 9.

Lisandro Martinez of Manchester United resumes training with the first team.


According to Man United head coach Ruben Amorim, "He’s feeling fine," last week. "I do not want to mention a single day or week because the knee is doing so wonderfully.

"I am not sure, but the team's training is about to begin. After that, Licha's rhythm will determine whether he places or not, but he is closer to starting training again.

The Red Devils will not be taking any chances with the Argentine because of the severity of the injury, and his return may be postponed until after the international break in November.

Luke Shaw's place in the starting lineup is now seriously threatened; therefore, Martinez's return is a significant boost for the 20-time English champions. Martinez is an expert in the left-sided role in the back three.

After joining Old Trafford from Ajax in the summer of 2022, the South American has made 91 appearances for the Red Devils, tallying three goals and three assists.
