Man City's Leroy Sane, Kevin De Bruyne up for Player of the Month

Manchester City duo Leroy Sane and Kevin De Bruyne lead the nominations for the Premier League's Player of the Month for October.

De Bruyne and Sane are among six players nominated for the award alongside Arsenal's Nacho Monreal, Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha, Glenn Murray of Brighton and Burnley keeper Nick Pope.

Sane and De Bruyne have helped City to the best ever start to a Premier League season, with the leaders sitting five points clear at the top.

Sane scored and assisted in each of City's three wins in October -- against Stoke, Burnley and West Brom -- while De Bruyne provided three assists.
