Football clubs Fleetwood Town and Nottingham Forest open September Player of the Month voting

Fleetwood Town Football Club has opened voting for its Fox Group September Player of the Month award. The month was highlighted by a historic Carabao Cup performance where the club defeated Championship side Sheffield United 1-0, securing a place in the fourth round to face Arsenal.

In league and trophy play, Fleetwood recorded two victories, two draws, and three defeats. Notable contributors included Ronan Coughlan, who scored in matches against Oldham Athletic and Shrewsbury Town, and Aaron Loupalo-Bi, who scored against Shrewsbury and Newport County.

Nottingham Forest is also conducting fan votes for its September Player of the Month. Xaver Schlager has emerged as a frontrunner for the award following his performances in matches against Tottenham, Aston Villa, and Coventry City. Schlager, who joined from RB Leipzig, recorded 21 defensive contributions across those three fixtures.
