Saka started the month with a goal and assist in the 4-0 victory over Everton, before ending the month with three goal involvements against Crystal Palace to become the youngest Arsenal player to reach double figures for goals and assists in a season.
Only Arsenal captain Martin Odegaard who won the prize in November/December and Saka and Trossard are hoping to follow in the footsteps of the Norwegian.
Arsenal are currently leading the Premier League table with eight points over Manchester City with just 10 games remaining and are big favourites to lift the title this season.
