For the second consecutive month, Saudi star Fahad Alarini has been named the Player of the Month in the Gulf Premier League, a new achievement that has stunned the league’s top stars.
The official league account confirmed the news on Tuesday, announcing that Alarini had won the award for February 2026. The midfielder collected 42% of the total fan votes, beating out several high-profile contenders.
Alarini’s consistent performances throughout February were key to his victory. He scored three goals and provided two assists in four league matches, helping his side maintain their push for the title.
The award marks the second time Alarini has claimed the monthly honor this season. He previously won the January 2026 award after an equally impressive run of form.
Speaking after the announcement, Alarini thanked the fans for their support. “This is a special moment for me,” he said. “Winning it once was great, but to do it two months in a row shows the hard work I am putting in every day.”
The 27-year-old has been in outstanding form all season, emerging as one of the most influential players in the Gulf league. His ability to control the tempo of matches and deliver in key moments has made him a fan favorite.
Alarini’s latest achievement puts him in an elite group of players who have won back-to-back Player of the Month awards in the competition’s history. The league confirmed that no other player has managed this feat in the current 2025-2026 campaign.
With the season entering its decisive phase, Alarini will look to maintain his momentum and help his team secure silverware. His next test comes this weekend when his side faces a tough away fixture against a direct rival.
