Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez has won his first Castrol Save of the Month award after taking the September 2023 prize for his acrobatic stop to deny Aston Villa's Nicolo Zaniolo.

Sanchez showed quick reflexes to tip the Italian's powerful volley over the crossbar.

He is the second Spanish goalkeeper to win the award for Chelsea, after Kepa Arrizabalaga claimed the prize in October 2022 - also for a save against Aston Villa, which went on to be named the Castrol Save of the Season.

Sanchez topped a shortlist featuring five other sensational saves by goalkeepers across the month.
