Nigeria International Striker Named Best Player In Sky Bet Championship

Super Eagle Sone Aluko has been rewarded for his imperious displays for Fulham last month after picking up the Sky Bet Championship Player of the Month for October.

During the period under review, the offensive all-rounder was on target in the Cottagers memorable win versus Barnsley, before notching three assists against Huddersfield.

Interviewed by the official website of Fulham, Aluko said : “Personally it’s a great feeling to be recognised with this award. It’s a nice feeling to be publically rewarded for your efforts.

“Ultimately I think it’s a team award. I wouldn’t get this award if the team weren’t winning and it’s a credit to my teammates and all the staff who have provided me with a platform to play well on. ”

This is the second time Aluko has been recognized as the best player in the English second-tier, having won the accolade back in November 2012 while on the payroll of Hull City.
