Morocco star Azzedine Ounahi wins Girona FC’s Player of The Month Award in September

Moroccan midfielder Azzedine Ounahi has been named Girona FC’s Player of the Month for September, following a string of standout performances that have quickly endeared him to fans and teammates alike.

The Spanish club confirmed the accolade on its official X (formerly Twitter) page, underscoring the widespread recognition of Ounahi’s growing influence in Míchel Sánchez’s side.

Since arriving from Olympique de Marseille at the end of August, the 24-year-old has seamlessly integrated into Girona’s midfield, becoming the creative heartbeat of the team. His debut against Celta Vigo offered an early glimpse of his quality — composed under pressure, sharp in distribution, and relentless in pressing.

Ounahi capped off an impressive month by scoring his first goal for the club in the victory over Athletic Bilbao, a well-timed strike that highlighted his impeccable sense of timing and positional awareness.

His performances have not gone unnoticed in Spain, earning him multiple Team of the Week selections and glowing reviews from local media.

Girona supporters and technical staff have hailed Ounahi’s arrival as transformative, praising his flair, balance, and ability to dictate the rhythm of play. Head coach Míchel Sánchez lauded the midfielder’s impact, describing him as “a difference-maker with the ball” and commending his “intelligence on the pitch.”

Ounahi’s early form suggests he could be one of Girona’s most influential players this season as the club continues its impressive run in La Liga.
