Cristiano Ronaldo wins Premier League Player of the Month for a SIXTH time to overtake Wayne Rooney's record at Manchester United... even though they took just four points from five matches!

Manchester United star Cristiano Ronaldo has been named Player of the Month for April - making it two monthly awards this season.

The 37-year-old has won player of the month for a sixth time, now the most of any United player in the competition, overtaking Wayne Rooney's five.

Ronaldo was in impressive form throughout the month of April, scoring five times in just four matches for the Red Devils, even though it was a tough time for Ralf Rangnick's side who took just four points from five matches.

The latest award now moves the Portuguese international to within one of the Premier League record of seven, which is held by Tottenham striker Harry Kane, and former Manchester City star Sergio Aguero.
