Swansea City striker Andre Ayew has been named August's Barclays Premier League Player of the Month, crowning a fine start to life in England.
The deputy Ghana captain Ayew has netted three goals for the Welsh side who are unbeaten this season and has taken the league by storm.
Ayew took the award ahead of his team-mate Bafetimbi Gomis as well as Manchester City duo David Silva and Aleksandar Kolarov.
Also nominated were Leicester's Riyad Mahrez and Manchester United's Chris Smalling.
Ayew has helped the Swans to fourth with eight points from their opening four games.
The 25-year old joined Swansea from French club Marseille, got a Premier League debut against Chelsea and has partnered with Gomis to score all of Swansea's seven league goals so far.
They visit Watford on Saturday.
