Nené named Player of the Month in Liga Portugal SABSEG

The AVS striker adds the award to his Continente Forward of the Month accolade

Enjoying a remarkable season at all levels, Nené has been a decisive player in AVS's season, a status that earned him the Liga Portugal SABSEG Player of the Month award in December.

With a total of 28.36 per cent of the votes cast by the competition's head coaches, the 40-year-old Brazilian has once again entered his name in the Liga Portugal's official awards, and in double dose, having also been honoured as the competition's Continente Forward of the Month.

The Avenses' number 18 excelled in December, with four goals in the four matches played during the period in question, in which AVS had a 100 per cent winning record.

Nené beat off competition from Chuchu Ramirez (CD Nacional), who received 17.16 per cent of the votes, and Roberto (CD Tondela), who received 13.43 per cent of the coaches' preference.
