Viktor Gyökeres was nominated for Premier League Player of the Month for February. According to major media, Gyökeres scored a total of four goals in five matches in February, including two goals against Sunderland and two goals against Tottenham. He has scored ten goals in 28 Premier League matches this season.
Major media reports that Gyökeres is 27 years old and has increased his goal production at Arsenal. He was previously named Arsenal's Player of the Month for January. Other nominees for the award included Antoine Semenyo, Nico O'Reilly, Benjamin Sesko, Virgil van Dijk, and Dango Ouattara.
However, other sources state that Antoine Semenyo won the Premier League Player of the Month award for February. Semenyo is a Manchester City player and was a January signing from Bournemouth. He has continued to be in hot form since the club change, scoring three goals and providing one assist in February.
The last time a Swedish player won Premier League Player of the Month was in December 2024, when Alexander Isak won the award. The specific criteria or voting results that led to Semenyo winning over Gyökeres are not known. Gyökeres' impact on Arsenal's position in the Premier League standings is also unclear.
The winner is selected by fans who can freely vote for their favorite.
