The 24-year-old England international scored five goals in Ligue 1 last month, including a remarkable quadruple in Marseille’s crushing 6-2 victory over Le Havre.
Greenwood’s Outstanding October Performance
The English player was named Ligue 1 Player of the Month for the month of October, as announced on Sunday by the UNFP (National Union of Professional Footballers), the players’ union. This is a great success for Greenwood, who continues his reconstruction in France after his departure from Manchester United.
Greenwood’s exceptional form in October saw him score five goals in Ligue 1. Among his most notable performances was his quadruple in Marseille’s convincing 6-2 victory over Le Havre. He also scored a goal in the narrow defeat (2-1) against Lens, demonstrating his consistency and offensive efficiency. This impressive total of goals and his overall contribution allowed him to beat Joaquin Panichelli (Strasbourg) and Sofiane Diop (OGC Nice) to win the title of Ligue 1 Player of the Month, with 38% of the votes.
This is the second time that Greenwood has received the title of Ligue 1 Player of the Month since his arrival at Marseille in the summer of 2024. This regular recognition underlines his impact on the elite of French football.
Impressive stats this season and past performances
Greenwood’s statistics this season are testament to his continued influence at Marseille. He has scored nine goals and provided four assists in 15 appearances in all competitions. This follows a very successful first season in 2024-2025, where he immediately made an impression after his permanent transfer from Manchester United.
In his first season in Ligue 1, Greenwood scored 21 goals in 34 games, finishing tied with Ousmane Dembélé (PSG) for the Golden Shoe. Marseille finished second behind Paris Saint-Germain this season, proof of Greenwood’s essential contribution to the title race. His record with OM is 31 goals and 10 assists in 51 matches in all competitions, according to AFP.
Marseille are currently engaged in a fierce fight for the Ligue 1 title, just two points behind championship leaders PSG. Greenwood’s goalscoring talent and creativity are at the heart of the team’s ambitions.
