OFFICIAL: Werner wins Bundesliga's Player of the Month for November

  /  Wyp1993

RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner has been named the Bundesliga's Player of the Month for November. 

The award, created by the DFL Deutsche Fußball Liga in cooperation with the Bundesliga’s official licensing partner, FIFA 20, is decided through a two-stage selection process that considers both the players' individual performance data and a vote by fans and experts.

RB Leipzig's third player among the candidates in November is Germany international Timo Werner. 

The 23-year-old is in some of the best form of his career, playing a part in no fewer than 12 goals for his team (seven goals, five assists) and as a result, he has had a hand in more goals than anybody else in the Bundesliga this season, with the exception of Bayern forward Lewandowski. 

His return in November, both in terms of goals and assists, was unrivalled.

The Stuttgart-born forward was particularly prolific on Matchday 10, when he was involved in six of Leipzig's eight goals against Mainz, scoring three and setting up just as many in a game he admitted had been the best of his career to date. 

Furthermore, Werner cruised to a new personal record in November, marking his 200th Bundesliga appearance on Matchday 12 against Cologne as the youngest player ever to reach such a landmark, aged only 23.
