Gazeta Sporturilor Monthly Football Awards

Gheorghe Hagi has won a record four Manager of the Month trophies.

The Gazeta Sporturilor Monthly Football Awards are association football awards presented monthly by Romania's largest and most read sports-related publication, Gazeta Sporturilor. They were first handed out in September 2021, and honour players and managers deemed to have been the best over the previous month in Romania.[1]

The award is not affiliated with the country's top flight competition, the Liga I—instead, voters can also choose between Romanian players and coaches who are competing abroad. Foreign footballers and coaches from Romania's first league are eligible as well. As of May 2023, Gheorghe Hagi has won the trophy for Manager of the Month five times, a record in both categories.
