Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dele Alli and Swansea City manager Paul Clement has claimed Player and Manager of the Month award for January.

No player scored more than the Tottenham Hotspur midfielder’s five goals last month as the north Londoners stepped up their Premier League title challenge with three wins and two draws in the month.

The England international received the most combined votes consisting of a panel of experts, Premier League captains and the public.

Meanwhile, Paul Clement has been rewarded the Barclays Manager of the Month award for January for Swansea City’s impressive run of form.

The Swans manager took over as the club’s head coach on January 3 and has helped the club record three victories, beating Crystal Palace, Southampton and securing the club’s first win at Anfield to move out of the bottom three.

Andy Carroll fended off stiff competition to win January’s Carling Goal of the Month with his overhead kick for West Ham United against Crystal Palace goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey.
