The month of February has come to an end and right on time, EA has revealed which German league star has won the Bundesliga POTM award in FIFA 23.
A certain Borussia Dortmund midfielder is this month's winner and has claimed back-to-back Bundesliga Player of the Month awards.
German international Julian Brandt is the player in question.
The Dortmund playmaker has won the Bundesliga's POTM award for a second time in as many months and has been handed an 89 OVR special item this time around.
Take a look below at what Brandt's new Player of the Month item looks like in FIFA 23 and how you can unlock it for your squad below.

POTM Brandt
Brandt was leaked as the Bundesliga POTM winner by the ever-reliable FifaTradingRomania on Twitter, so this one didn't come as much of a surprise.
The 26-year-old has been handed a +1 OVR on his January Player of the Month card, taking him to an 89-rated POTM item in Ultimate Team.
Thankfully, EA has given Brandt more than just a +1 on each of his January POTM base stats, as the previous item fell well below the power curve at the current point in the game cycle.
The Borussia Dortmund attacker now boasts 92 Dribbling, 89 Passing and 86 Shooting, as well as four-star skill moves and a four-star weak foot.
EA has also given Brandt a huge +5 Pace, taking him to 82. This was much needed in order to make his new item usable and not just completed for SBC fodder, like the last one.
Brilliant Brandt
As mentioned previously, Brandt already has one Bundesliga Player of the Month award in his trophy cabinet for the 2022/23 season.
The German's previous POTM win came as a surprise to many FUT fans, as he only registered two assists and didn't manage to score during the month of January.
Despite his stats not blowing the footballing world away, Brandt was excellent throughout and has been the club's outstanding player ever since the turn of the year.
In fact, Borussia Dortmund as a team has been incredible since the resumption of football following the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Dortmund have won every single game in the league this year, seeing them rise to second in the Bundesliga, second only to Bayern Munich on goal difference.
Julian Brandt has been on fire during that run, having netted four goals in four appearances in February, taking his tally to eight for the season.
Brandt's February POTM item is his fifth special card of FIFA 23 and his new SBC is priced at around 50,000 coins, which seems fair.
