Erling Haaland is named Premier League Player of the Month for August after scoring NINE goals in five matches - including back-to-back hat-tricks - as he becomes the 10th player to win the award in their debut month

Erling Haaland has been named Premier League Player of the Month for August after astonishing first few weeks in England.

The Norwegian arrived at Manchester City from Borussia Dortmund to much fanfare this summer and has duly delivered, scoring nine goals in his opening five games across August before making that 10 in six as September rolled around.

Having endured a difficult afternoon in City's Community Shield defeat to Liverpool at the end of July, Haaland took little time to bed into the Premier League, scoring twice on his league debut away at West Ham.
