"I am very proud to win this award again – but I am most proud of being part of this amazing team," Gundogan, 30, said.

 

"Hopefully we can continue like this because, ultimately, winning trophies is what matters. I know all the squad want that to happen and we will try our best from now until the end of the season."

Along with Gundagon, manager Guardiola was named the Manager of the Month for February, as he continues to marshall his troops towards winning titles, both domestically and continentally, this season.

 

City are top of the league with 68 points after 29 games and visit 18th-placed Fulham on Saturday.
