Leicester City Manager Enzo Maresca has been named Sky Bet Championship Manager of the Month for August.
- Leicester City manager Enzo Maresca wins Sky Bet Championship award
- The Foxes won all four of their league games in August
The Italian – who took charge in June – guided the Foxes to four straight league wins at the start of a season for the first time in the Club’s history.
Victories included an opening day win against Coventry City before triumphs over Huddersfield Town, Cardiff City and Rotherham United.
Chosen by a panel of judges, he saw off competition from Ryan Lowe, John Eustace and David Wagner to win the award.
Discussing his success, Maresca said: “I’m very happy, but as happens in football, you never reach something yourself, you need people behind you. First of all, the players, they are the most important and then the backroom staff for sure.
“We started two months ago - one month for pre-season and one month for the official competition. We started in the right way in terms of results and the way that we play. For sure, there are many things to improve but this is the right way.”
City are next in action after the international break when they travel to Southampton on Friday 15 September (8pm BST kick-off).
