Bart Verbruggen and Jan Paul van Hecke have been nominated for the award, with Verbruggen impressing at Brighton & Hove Albion and Van Hecke playing a key role in Tottenham Hotspur's strong month, according to VoetbalPrimeur. Van Hecke kept two clean sheets in October and scored a goal in a 2-0 win over Crystal Palace, while also setting a club record with 143 successful passes in the same game.
Van Hecke's performances were a key factor in Tottenham's three wins and one draw in October, with the team remaining undefeated with him in goal. The defender joined Tottenham from Brighton in the summer and has made a strong impression since his move.
The nominations will be decided by a combination of fan votes and the opinions of a panel of football experts, with the winner to be announced next week.
