Liverpool FC Women’s team has named Nigerian football player, Rinsola Babajide as the team’s player of the month for January.
Rinsola Babajide was voted best player following her impressive performance for The Reds in January which saw her score four goals against Blackburn Rovers Ladies in the club’s 8-1 win. She also started all the three matches played by Liverpool last month.
The 21-year-old, a natural winger who can also play as a central striker, said: “I’m really honoured to be Player of the Month and thanks to all the fans that voted.
“I feel like our performances have been getting better all the time and two back-to-back wins show that. Now we need another three points and that would be massive for us.”
“It was the volley [past Blackburn] for me, though I’m not sure which one the fans enjoyed most,” she said about her favorite career goal.
“We just needed to hit the back of the net because we’ve been playing well without scoring so it’s a confidence boost for all of us.”
