Manchester United Women forward Nikita Parris has been named February PFA WSL Fans’ Player of the Month.

The forward scored two goals in as many games in the division across the second month of 2024, and follows up her United Women Player of the Month award - announced on Saturday - with another triumph.

Nikita faced stiff competition from Jordan Nobbs and Adriana Leon (Aston Villa), Khiara Keating and Chloe Kelly (Manchester City), and Leicester City's Yuka Momiki in the WSL fan vote but, after impressing once more for the Reds, edged them all to add another accolade to her CV.

Nikita was the overwhelming winner of our February vote, having continued her impressive season to date.

Parris began February by netting a brace in our 2-0 victory over Brighton, before starting United's 3-1 defeat at the Emirates Stadium, against her former club Arsenal.

Nikita continues to be a key part of the way Marc Skinner's team operate, linking play and netting important goals.

She also has a big influence off the pitch, being named in the 2023 Black List last week alongside Liverpool's Trent Alexander-Arnold and Chelsea's Jess Carter, for blazing a trail in football for the Black community.

February's fan award makes it a double-winning month for the 29-year-old, who beat Lisa Naalsund and Millie Turner to be named our Player of the Month for February, the second time she has won the accolade.

Congratulations on another impressive month Nikita - keep it up!
