Burnley’s Cornet battles Salah and Foden for Premier League prize

Burnley star Maxwel Cornet has been nominated for the Premier League Player of the Month award for October.

To pick up this prize, the Cote d’Ivoire international must shrug off challenges from Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah as well as England international and Manchester City star Phil Foden.

Others include Chelsea’s Ben Chilwell, Southampton’s Tino Livramento, Arsenal’s Aaron Ramsdale, West Ham United’s Declan Rice and Youri Tielemans of Leicester City.

Since his move to Turf Moor, the 25-year-old Elephant has been impressive for Sean Dyche’s men. In the period under review, he scored three goals in as many starts – which included great strikes against Southampton and Brentford.
