Liverpool winger Sadio Mane has been named the Premier League Player of Month (POTM) for November due to his outstanding performance with the Reds.

The Senegalese won this award after a public referendum on the Premier League official website, which was then combined with those of the 20 club captains plus a panel of football experts to decide the winner.

The vote allowed the Reds' winger to beat Dele Alli, Raul Jimenez, Lys Mousset, Son Heung-min, Caglar Soyuncu, and Jamie Vardy.

"He topped a seven-man shortlist that also included Dele Alli, Raul Jimenez, Lys Mousset, Son Heung-min, Caglar Soyuncu and October winner Jamie Vardy," the Premier League official website said.

In November, he netted three goals and made one assist as Liverpool maintained their unbeaten start to the Premier League season and pulled off four victories.

The Senegalese first game in November saw him set up Andy Robertson's 87th-minute equalizer, before giving the Reds a dramatic winner in the injury time.

He then netted in Liverpool's 3-1 victory over holders Manchester City at Anfield, before scoring another goal against Crystal Palace.

Mane won this award for the third time in his history after winning it in August 2017 and March 2019.
