After scooping the award in September, the Portuguese has continued his impressive debut season in English football since and gained plaudits from far and wide last month.
In his five December matches, Sa conceded just two goals, only one coming from open play, meaning he kept three clean sheets against Burnley, Brighton & Hove Albion and Chelsea.
In that draw over the title challengers, he was particularly impressive, producing a stunning save to deny Christian Pulisic and earn his side a point.
Keeping clean sheet number 7️⃣.

Of any goalkeeper across the top four tiers with 15 appearances, Sa has the highest save percentage with 85%, while no stopper has kept more clean sheets away from home in the Premier League this campaign than Sa.
That form has seen him voted Wolves’ star performer for Wolves last month, ahead of Romain Saiss and Ruben Neves.
