Summer signing earns Premier League Player of the Month nod after breaking Tottenham passing record
Story updated
The story in brief
7-second readScoring a header while sitting on the turf and completing a club record 143 passes summed up an unforgettable October for Jan Paul van Hecke.
From the source
Scoring a header while sitting down against Crystal Palace capped off a sensational October for Jan Paul van Hecke. He also completed a club record 143 passes in that 2-0 win.
The Premier League has shortlisted the Dutch defender for the monthly player award. Across the entire division, no other player attempted or completed more passes last month.
Reuniting with Roberto De Zerbi after his summer move from Brighton suited the 26-year-old straight away. Because he already knew the system, the ball playing centre back settled into North London life fast.
