Girona coach Michel is among the three contenders for the title of the best coach of the month in the Spanish La Liga.
The 47-year-old specialist will compete with Real Madrid manager Carlo Ancelotti and Valencia coach Ruben Baraha. In August, Girona won the matches against Getafe (3-0) and Sevilla (2-1), and drew with Real Sociedad (1-1).
After 3 rounds of the Spanish league, the White and Reds are third in the standings with seven points.
