Manchester City Winger Antoine Semenyo
Antoine Semenyo has been named the Premier League Player of the Month for February 2026 after delivering a series of influential performances for Manchester City. The honour marks the first time the Ghana international has received the monthly award in the Premier League.
Semenyo enjoyed an impressive month in England’s top flight, scoring three goals and providing one assist in five league matches during February. His contributions helped Manchester City remain unbeaten throughout the month.
The forward found the net in key matches against Tottenham Hotspur, Fulham FC, and Leeds United, including a decisive goal that secured a crucial victory for City.
His strong performances came shortly after completing a high-profile move to Manchester City during the January 2026 transfer window, where he quickly established himself as an important attacking option in the squad.
Semenyo’s rapid impact since joining the club has been reflected in his scoring form. Across competitions, he has registered several goals in his early appearances, highlighting his ability to adapt quickly to Pep Guardiola’s system.
Competition for the February award was strong, with several players across the league nominated after standout displays. However, Semenyo’s combination of goals, creativity, and match-winning contributions ultimately earned him the recognition.
The accolade represents a major milestone in the 26-year-old’s career and further underlines his growing reputation as one of the most influential attacking players in the Premier League this season.
