Naxxar Lions’ talismanic striker Vitinho has been officially named the LifeStar Insurance Most Valuable Player for February 2026, following a sensational run of form that has redefined his team’s season.

The Brazilian forward was the driving force behind a remarkable resurgence for the Lions. Throughout the month, Vitinho’s individual brilliance helped propel Naxxar from the lower echelons of the standings into a commanding position as genuine Top 6 contenders.

A Month of Dominance

Vitinho’s impact was reflected in his consistent match-day performances, where he was selected as the Most Valuable Player on three separate occasions during the February fixtures. His most notable contribution came during the emphatic 5-0 derby victory over rivals Mosta, a performance that solidified his status as one of the league’s most clinical attackers.

The official trophy was presented to Vitinho on Monday, 9 March, by Roberto Apap Bologna, CEO of LifeStar Insurance.

Crucial Timing

The timing of Vitinho’s peak form could not be better for the Lions. As they head into the final matchday of the League Phase against Hibernians on 14 March, they sit in sixth place with 15 points. With their Brazilian star firing on all cylinders, the club is now just one positive result away from securing their place in the Championship group.
