Premier League confirm Player & Manager of the Month winners for January | OneFootball

The Premier League Player and Manager of the Month award winners for January have been confirmed, with Bournemouth sweeping both prizes for their incredible run of form.

The first month of 2025 was a special one down on the south coast as Bournemouth collected ten points from a possible 12, picking up a point away at Chelsea before sensationally in-form duo Newcastle United and Nottingham Forest.

It was a particularly good month for winger Justin Kluivert, named Premier League Player of the Month for the first time in his career. The Dutchman scored five times for the Cherries, including a terrific hat-trick – his second of the season – up at St James' Park.

"I’m so delighted," Kluivert told Premier League Productions. "We've been working hard as a team and to help them with a lot of goals this month is an honour. To win this beautiful trophy is special."

Kluivert also laid on the assist for Milos Kerkez's goal against Newcastle, becoming the first Bournemouth player to have a direct role in four goals during a single Premier League match.

"Stay humble and keep working hard," he continued when asked about the future. "That's always the main thing and then those beautiful things just fall in place. I know my qualities and what I can do for the team, and I know I can even do a lot more, so I can’t wait to keep going."

It's perhaps no surprise that Kluivert's success has been mirrored by manager Andoni Iraola, who picks up the award for the second time in his career. The Spaniard has led Bournemouth to seventh in the Premier League table, trailing fourth-placed Chelsea by three points in the final guaranteed Champions League qualification spot.

Iraola is the fifth head coach to be named manager of the month this season, following on Fabian Hurzeler (August), Enzo Maresca (September), Nuno Espirito Santo (October and December) and Arne Slot (November).
