Jurgen Klopp has won the Barclays Manager of the Month award for January 2024.
The Liverpool boss claims the accolade for a 10th time in his career, and first since May 2021.
It means only three managers in Premier League history have won the award more times than Klopp, who moves level with West Ham United manager David Moyes.

Klopp's Liverpool were the only Premier League team to play three matches and win all three in January, a month in which he announced he will be leaving the club at the end of the season.
His side beat Newcastle United, AFC Bournemouth and Chelsea, scoring four goals in each victory and ending the month top of the Premier League table.
The win against Chelsea was extra significant as it made Klopp only the seventh manager in Premier League history to reach 200 victories, doing so in the second-fewest matches.
Klopp topped a four-man shortlist that included Arsenal's Mikel Arteta, Luton Town's Rob Edwards and Manchester City's Pep Guardiola.
He wins January's award after votes from the public were combined with those of a panel of experts.
It makes it a January awards double for Liverpool, after Diogo Jota was voted the EA SPORTS Player of the Month.
