Manchester United star Jess Park has won the club’s Player of the Month for October, it has been announced.

Park enjoying fairytale start to life at United

Park has been brilliant for United since joining the club in the summer from Manchester City. She arrived at United as part of a swap deal that involved Grace Clinton going the other way.

A top talent, Park has settled in quickly at United. She delivered a standout performance in the hard-fought 1-1 draw against reigning champions Chelsea.

Against Chelsea, Park completed the most dribbles and won the most duels.

The 24-year-old followed that up with a stunning off-the-bench cameo as United came from behind to beat Everton at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.

She scored two goals to help United to a 4-1 victory.

Park also featured and played well as United beat Valerenga 1-0 in the Champions League. It has been a wonderful past few weeks for the midfielder.

She scooped up the WSL’s Player of the Month award and United have confirmed that she has also won the club equivalent.

United note that Park won an impressive 56 per cent of the fan vote.

She eclipsed skipper Maya Le Tissier, Anna Sandberg and Julia Zigiotti Olme, who came in second, third and fourth respectively.

Park becomes the second United player to win the Player of the Month accolade after Elisabeth Terland. The Norwegian striker was a back-to-back winner in August and September.

Park and United are back in action on Sunday when they go away to Brighton and Hove Albion.
