Manchester United striker Benjamin Sesko has been named the club’s Player of the Month for February after scoring some important goals.

The Slovenian star has been a regular substitute under interim boss Michael Carrick, but he has still contributed heavily for the Mancunian giants.

Sesko came off the bench to score the winning goal against Fulham and went on to equalise in the dying seconds against West Ham United.

The former RB Leipzig man bagged another late winner against Everton earlier this week. As a result, he has won United’s Player of the Month award.

Sesko received 61 percent of the votes from the United faithful with goalkeeper Senne Lammens coming second with 33 percent.

The 22-year-old will be eyeing his first start under Carrick when the Red Devils entertain Crystal Palace at Old Trafford on Sunday.

United have the opportunity to do the league double over the Eagles, having won the reverse fixture by a 2-1 scoreline in London.
