Brighton manager Fabian Hurzeler has been awarded the Premier League Manager of the Month for September, marking his first accolade since August 2024. Under the German's guidance, the Seagulls enjoyed an unbeaten month, notching up two wins and a draw, scoring nine goals while conceding just one. This impressive performance has propelled the team to third in the league table.
In September, Brighton claimed a stunning victory over reigning champions Arsenal, handing the Gunners their first defeat of the season with a commanding 3-0 win. The Seagulls also demolished Coventry with a 5-0 rout and secured a 1-1 draw with Leeds. Currently, Brighton leads the Premier League in possession (64.8%), shots on target per match, chances created, and interceptions in the final third, averaging a remarkable 3.2 goals per game.
Hurzeler triumphed over competition from Andoni Iraola of Liverpool and Enzo Maresca of Manchester City for this prestigious award. Additionally, Brighton midfielder Pascal Gross was recognised as Player of the Month.
