Chelsea striker Diego Costa,
has been named the Barclays Player of the Month for August.
The Spaniard has made an
impressive start to life in England, scoring after just 17 minutes into his
debut away to Burnley, before netting at Stamford Bridge as they won Leicester
2-0.
Costa also bagged a brace as
Chelsea defeated Everton in a 6-3 thriller.
“I’m very happy to win
this award,” he said. “It is important to
begin well at a new club and I’m pleased with both
my start to the season and also the team’s, which is the most
important thing.
‘I hope to continue scoring goals to help out the team
and keep making our fantastic supporters happy. I thank my team-mates as they
have helped me win this award.”
Swansea manager Garry Monk,
went home with the manager’s prize.
The coach has led the Welsh
club to a perfect start this season, winning all their games in August.
