Raphinha (29) clinched August’s Player of the Month and La Liga has nominated him again for the second month. The Barcelona captain is the front‑runner. Fellow nominees are Sergio Camello, Jonathan David, Kylian Mbappé and Fer Niño.
The Brazilian posted the best numbers among the nominees, finishing the month with seven goals and two assists – ahead of Camello (4+1), Jonathan David (3+1), Mbappé (3+2) and Fer Niño (four goals). Fans now vote to decide the month’s top player.
Hansi Flick joins the shortlist for Coach of the Month. After Quique Sánchez Flores captured the award for the opening month thanks to Alavés’s strong start, Flick is back in contention alongside Diego Simeone and Manuel Pellegrini.
Flick and Raphinha aren’t the only hopefuls. In my view, Cancelo’s strike stands out as the most spectacular. Cubarsí vies for the Best Under‑23 award against Zabiri (Racing), Moleiro (Villarreal), Miguel Sierra (Sevilla) and Yoel Lago (Celta). Cancelo is nominated for Goal of the Month for his strike versus Racing, as are Budimir (vs Rayo) and Lucas Boyé (vs Osasuna).
