Idrissa Gueye has been voted FC Metz’s Player of the Month for February after an impressive start to his tenure with the club.
The Senegalese forward, who joined the Ligue 2 side in January, has quickly established himself as a key player, winning praise from both teammates and fans.
Since his arrival, Gueye has made an immediate impact, scoring three goals in eight appearances. His performances have been instrumental for Metz, with his most notable contribution coming in a crucial 3-1 victory over Paris FC.
His ability to find the net and adapt swiftly to his new team earned him 38% of the fan vote, securing the monthly accolade.
Gueye edged out competition from Benjamin Stambouli, Papa Amadou Diallo, and Gauthier Hein to claim the award.
Notably, he follows in the footsteps of fellow Senegalese forward Diallo, who was the club’s Player of the Month in January.
The 24-year-old striker honed his skills at Génération Foot, a renowned Senegalese academy that has produced several talented players for European football.
His rapid integration into Metz’s squad and his early success suggest he could play a crucial role in the club’s push for promotion.
As the season progresses, Gueye’s recent form will serve as a confidence boost, with both the player and the club hoping he can maintain his goal-scoring momentum in the months ahead.
