Ipswich Town goalkeeper Arijanet Muric has been pipped to the Premier League 'Save of the Month' award for September.
The Kosovo international was nominated for his stunning double save away at Brighton, keeping out Georginio Rutter's initial effort before getting up and over to the other side of his goal to deny Kaoru Mitoma.

Listed among five other shot-stoppers, Muric was ultimately pipped to the award by Manchester United's Andre Onana, who also pulled off a double save. In a 0-0 draw against Crystal Palace, he dived low to save Eddie Nketiah before preventing Ismaïla Sarr from scoring from point-blank range.

Muric was also nominated for the award in August for his acrobatic stop that denied Erling Haaland in Ipswich's 4-1 defeat to champions Manchester City. Arsenal goalkeeper David Raya ended up winning it for his goalline heroics against Aston Villa.
Chelsea's Cole Palmer was given the Player of the Month award for September while his manager, Enzo Maresca, was named Manager of the Month. Aston Villa super-sub Jhon Duran was given the prize for Goal of the Month for his thunderous strike against Everton.
