Jeju SK head coach Sergio Costa has been awarded the 'Manager of the Month' prize for September of the 2026 season.

The Korea Professional Football League announced Costa's award, explaining that "Jeju, led by Coach Costa, maintained an unbeaten streak with two wins and two draws in four matches played in September."

Jeju drew 0-0 in their first match of the month, the Round 27 game against UlsanHD. They then secured a victory in the midweek Round 28 match by defeating GwangjuFC 1-0.

In the Round 29 match against BucheonFC, they drew 2-2 after an intense exchange of attacks, but concluded their September schedule with a 1-0 win over Gangwon in Round 30.

During this period, Jeju recorded four goals scored and two conceded across four matches, demonstrating a stable balance between attack and defense.

In particular, they maintained consistent performance despite a challenging schedule that involved playing all three matches except the Ulsan game away from home.

Coach Costa flexibly adjusted tactics depending on the opponent and utilized various players in appropriate roles, leading the team to an unbeaten run in September. His managerial ability to maintain steady match control without wavering, even amid a difficult schedule, received high praise.

A commemorative trophy produced by the Korea Professional Football League and prize money are scheduled to be presented to Coach Costa.
