Leicester's Claudio Ranieri and Jamie Vardy have won November's Premier League Manager and Player of the Month awards respectively.

Vardy wins the accolade for the second successive time after sealing October's prize, having continued his scoring run in consecutive games to break Ruud Van Nistelrooy's Premier League record and extend it to 11 matches.

The 28-year-old forward, who recently made his England debut, has been in superb form this season with 14 goals in all competitions.

Ranieri, meanwhile, took Leicester back to the top of the Premier League with victory over Swansea last weekend a position they hit during an impressive unbeaten November which saw them record wins away to Newcastle, at home to Watford, and a 1-1 draw with Manchester United.

Ranieri was up against Jurgen Klopp, who had been on a run of four straight wins with Liverpool, Tottenham head coach Mauricio Pochettino and Everton boss Roberto Martinez.
