Fernandes moves past Salah and de Bruyne
Fernandes’ first Goal of the Month award came in his first season at Manchester United, thanks to a strike in June 2020 against Brighton, while his second award was for his goal against Everton in February 2021.
The Portugal international’s goal wrestles the award from August winner Kaoru Mitoma, whose goal against Wolves was judged as the best from the opening month of the season.
