The accolades keep on coming the way of Bayer 04 Leverkusen's iconic number seven Javier 'Chicharito' Hernandez, with January proving to be no exception.

WATCH: 'Chicharito' - January's Player of the Month

The Mexican's impact on the Bundesliga has been extraordinary: 13 goals in 16 appearances tell only half of a gripping tale, the rest of which is yet to be narrated and, if January is anything to go by, promises to be a thriller.

At the double!

Voted the CONCACAF Male Player of the Year for 2015 for the first time, the 27-year-old is earning more and more recognition for his remarkable form, which has seen him voted bundesliga.com's Player of the Month a staggering three times this season, earning the January gong by a landslide with 63 per cent of the vote, ahead of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Robert Lewandowski.
