Friday has seen Martin Dubravka named as the winner of this top Premier League award.
The Newcastle United keeper had been nominated twice for the January 2025 Premier League save of the month.
These were for saved made in the wins over Wolves and Southampton last month.
Martin Dubravka winning the award for the brilliant save from Jorgen Strand Larsen’s close-range effort, when somehow the NUFC keeper deflected his shot onto the woodwork and away to safety.
Premier League official announcement – 7 February 2025:
‘Martin Dubravka has won the Premier League Save of the Month award for January 2025 for his stunning point-blank stop for Newcastle United against Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Dubravka showed incredible reactions to keep out Jorgen Strand Larsen’s close-range effort, which he somehow managed to deflect onto the woodwork to preserve a clean sheet in a 3-0 win.
⛔️⛔️–
It was one of two Dubravka saves on a shortlist of six of the best stops by goalkeepers across the month.
The 36-year-old Slovak wins the award for the first time in his career and becomes the second Newcastle goalkeeper to win it since it was introduced in 2022/23, after Nick Pope, who claimed it in August 2022 and January 2023.
