Balzan striker Alan Da Silva Souza was named as the BOV Player of the Month for January.

The Brazilian, who joined the Reds last month, made an immediate impact in the BOV Premier League by marking his debut with a goal in a 4-1 win over Mosta.

Da Silva Souza turned past two defenders before hitting a low shot into the back of the net.

With four victories in as many matches during January, Balzan have put their championship challenge back on track by keeping the pressure on the top teams

Da Silva Souza continued on his positive streak, scoring a goal each against St Andrews’s and Qormi, the latter from a penalty.

Bernard Azzopardi, Manager of Bank of Valletta’s Birkirkara branch presented the trophy to Da Silva Souza.

The player chose Hospice Malta to benefit from the donation associated with this award.
