Hibernians captain Andrew Cohen (picture) has been named BOV player of the month for January.

Cohen is a mainstay of the Hibernians team that has established a commanding14-point lead over nearest rivals Valletta in the BOV Premier League standings.

A pinpoint cross to Andrei Agius for the stoppage-time equaliser against Birkirkara helped Hibernians to preserve their unbeaten run in the championship.

Goals against Balzan and Żebbuġ Rangers underlined Cohen’s sterling contribution to Hibs last month as the Malta international captured the monthly award for the first time since April 2006.

Marica Ellul, manager of Bank of Valletta’s Paola branch, presented the player of the month trophy to Cohen who chose Puttinu Cares to benefit from the BOV donation related to this award.
