The Albanian wideman for Granada CF is given the Player of the Month Award for August after playing a significant role in Los Nazares' outstanding start to the year.
August's LaLiga SmartBank Player of the Month honor goes to Myrto Uzuni. The Granada CF winger has made a strong start to the season and contributed significantly to Los Nazares' strong start, which has helped them move up to second place in the standings with nine points after collecting three straight victories.
The Albanian forward has been a key player for Aitor Karanka's squad, and his prowess with the ball and regular ventures into the box of the opposition have led to four goals and established him as one of the division's top scorers.
He played a key role in two of Granada's three victories in the season's opening matches. He scored against Real Racing Club in the last seconds to change the outcome in his team's favor and secure Los Nazares' first victory at the Nuevo Los Carmenes stadium. The following matchday, we continued to score a hat-trick for Granada to add three more points to their total at home against Villarreal B. With only 20 seconds left in the game, he astonishingly scored his first goal.
Yuri de Souza of SD Ponferradina and Alberto Moleiro of UD Las Palmas were also on the shortlist for the prize, but the Granada number 11 won the vote ahead of them.
