Only One Player Has More Premier League Player Of The Months Than Harry Kane

Only One Player Has More Premier League Player Of The Months Than Harry Kane

Kane will probably equal his namesake's record Royal Rumble elimination tally soon...

Harry Kane scooped his fifth Premier League Player of the Month award, and after his latest win, only one player is above when it comes to the individual monthly awards handed in the English top flight.

After once again failing to find the net in August, he scored six Premier League goals in four games in September to pick up the impressive award.

He was first handed the accolade in January 2015, and retained it for the next two months, before tasting individual success again in February 2017.

And now with his fifth success, achieved courtesy of three braces against Everton, West Ham and Huddersfield, he is now tied with Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie.


Only Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard, who first won it back in March 2001, has more Premier League Player of the Month awards to his name. The 37-year old's sixth and final success came in March 2014, just a month before his infamous slip against Chelsea led to Liverpool's title collapse.

It's ridiculous to think that Kane is just 24 and yet he has reached the tally that the two aforementioned greats achieved in a considerably shorter period of time, and is a good shout to level and eventually overtake Gerrard.

Was Kane the worthy recipient of last month's award?

Sound off in the comments.
