FIFA 22 Premier League POTM: Spurs Golden Boot winner leads May contenders


May's Premier League Player of the Month (POTM) is set to arrive shortly in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team, and there are some huge stars in the running for the award this month.

The winner will receive an upgraded card which you can bring to your club by completing the upcoming Squad Building Challenge.

Check out the top contenders for the May POTM award below, which includes some truly world-class players and top FUT 22 cards.

Release Date

The Premier League season has come to an end and there are no more matches to be played in May, so we will likely see an official shortlist revealed soon.

The current Cristiano Ronaldo April Player of the Month SBC expires on Sunday, 12 June, so there will be a bit of a wait for another Premier League POTM SBC to go live.

Sunday, 5 June is the absolute earliest we could see the new SBC come, but it will likely arrive a bit later than that as EA needs to allow time for votes.

Heung Min Son

It's been a fantastic week for Spurs fans as Tottenham secured fourth place in the Premier League and Champions League football for next season, whilst fan favourite Heung Min Son won the Golden Boot for the 2021/22 campaign.

The South Korea international has been on fire during the month of May, scoring six goals and providing one assist in five matches, which makes him the front runner for the final POTM award of the season.

Kevin De Bruyne

Belgian midfielder Kevin De Bruyne had yet another brilliant month which put the stamp on his Premier League Player of the Season win.

The Manchester City playmaker scored four goals (admitedly these were all scored in one match) and registered two assists during May, one of which secured the title for City on the final day of the season!

James Maddison

Leicester City star James Maddison is joint top of goal contributions for the month of May, with four goals and three assists in just four appearances.

The English attacking midfielder has played a key role in the Foxes' unbeaten month which included three wins and one draw.

Harry Kane

England international captain Harry Kane has finished the 2021/22 season on a high under new boss Antonio Conte, who has had a great impact on Spurs.

Kane scored five goals in May, to take his season tally to 27 in all competitions, whilst also picking up one assist this month.

Joel Matip

Liverpool centre-half Joel Matip has been simply outstanding all season long and is unlucky to miss out of the Premier League Team of the Season.

Matip was influencial once again in May as he scored two goals and registered one assist from the centre-back position!

April POTM Winner

Cristiano Ronaldo claimed the Premier League Player of the Month winner for April.

The 'GOAT' was handed a brilliant 94 OVR card that boasts incredible shooting, dribbling and pace stats as well as five-star skill moves.

Despite Manchester United's poor record in April in which they played four, lost two, won one and drew one, their famous number seven was outstanding yet again.

Ronaldo scored five goals in four appearances, including a brilliant hat-trick against Norwich in a 3-2 victory.
