Grealish wins EA SPORTS Player of the Month
Jack Grealish has been voted the EA SPORTS Player of the Month for August 2025, winning the award for the first time in his career.
Grealish had a stunning debut month for Everton after joining on loan from Manchester City in the summer. Grealish, who turned 30 this week, led the Premier League for assists in August, with his total of four being double that of any other player in the competition.

Indeed, Grealish's four assists came in just two matches, as he set up both goals as Everton beat Brighton & Hove Albion 2-0 in their first match at Hill Dickinson Stadium, before creating two more goals in Everton's following match, a 3-2 victory at Wolverhampton Wanderers that put the Toffees fifth in the table.
He became the first Everton player to ever record multiple assists in consecutive Premier League matches, while in Matchweek 4, when he plays at home against former club Aston Villa, he has the chance to be the first player in Premier League history to assist two or more goals in three consecutive appearances.
Grealish is the first Everton player to claim the EA SPORTS Player of the Month prize since Dominic Calvert-Lewin in September 2020.
He wins after topping an eight-man shortlist after the public's votes on the EA SPORTS website were combined with those of a panel of football experts.
Slot named Barclays Manager of the Month
Arne Slot has been named the Barclays Manager of the Month for August after leading defending champions Liverpool to a perfect start to the 2025/26 Premier League season.
The Dutchman guided the Reds to three wins from three matches, making Liverpool the only team with a 100 per cent record in the opening month.
Slot's side scored a league-high eight goals while navigating a tricky set of fixtures. They started their campaign with a thrilling 4-2 win over AFC Bournemouth at Anfield, followed by a dramatic 3-2 victory away at Newcastle United. The month ended with a 1-0 home win against last season’s runners-up Arsenal, cementing Liverpool's early-season title credentials.
This is Slot’s second Barclays Manager of the Month award, having first claimed the honour in November 2024, during his debut season in the Premier League.
Slot topped a four-man shortlist to win the August award, after votes from supporters were combined with those of a panel of football experts.
Szoboszlai wins Guinness Goal of the Month
Dominik Szoboszlai's stunning free-kick in Liverpool's 1-0 win over Arsenal has been voted August 2025's Guinness Goal of the Month.
Szoboszlai becomes the first Hungarian player to win one of the Premier League's monthly awards.
The 24-year-old earned Liverpool a late victory at Anfield with a dipping set-piece from 30 yards that flew over the wall and into the the top-right corner via the inside of a post.
It makes it an August awards double for Liverpool, after Arne Slot was voted the Barclays Manager of the Month.
Szoboszlai wins August's award after his goal topped a shortlist of eight of the best in August following votes from the public and a panel of experts.
Trafford wins Coca-Cola Save of the Month
Manchester City goalkeeper James Trafford has won August 2025's Coca-Cola Save of the Month award for his sensational stop against Brighton & Hove Albion.
Trafford produced an incredible save to acrobatically deny Jan Paul van Hecke's deflected, close-range effort with his left hand.
It is the first time Trafford has won a Premier League Save of the Month award since it was introduced in 2022/23, while he is also the first Man City goalkeeper to claim the accolade.
Trafford wins August's award after votes from the public were combined with those of a panel of experts, topping a shortlist of six stunning saves by goalkeepers across the month.
