The in-form striker is in the running for September's Sky Bet League One Player of the Month award!
The nominees for September:
Devante Cole (Barnsley) – striker
Enjoying the best scoring run of his life, Cole added another four goals in five games in September and pressed tirelessly from the front. Oozing confidence and calmness, a delightful curler from the edge of the area against Burton was the pick.
Greg Leigh (Oxford United) – full-back
A momentous month for the Jamaica international. Three goals from three games made the left-back Oxford’s leading scorer this season. He galloped forward at will and scored twice at Stevenage, including a classy volley, on his birthday.
Regan Poole (Portsmouth) – central defender
Solid, dependable in the air and especially composed on the ball playing out from the back, Poole stood out in attack as well as defence in September with three goals in five games including a headed winner against former club Lincoln.
Jordan Rhodes (Blackpool) – striker
The experienced striker became the first Blackpool player to score a hat-trick in five seasons when he managed the feat against Reading. As well as calmly finishing five goals in four games, his link-up play and penalty area nous stood out.
ALL WINNERS WILL BE ANNOUNCED ON FRIDAY 13 OCTOBER 2023
The judging panel for the Sky Bet Player of the Month comprises Sky Sports’ EFL expert Don Goodman; EFL Chief Executive Trevor Birch and Sky Bet EFL trader Ivor Davies.
