Super Eagles forward, Taiwo Awoniyi has been nominated for the Premier League Player of the Month for August.

Awoniyi's recognition for his impressive performances for Nottingham Forest at the beginning of the 2023-24 Premier League season have earned him a nomination for the award.

The Nigerian international began the season with a goal after he came off the bench against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.

He continued his impressive form against newly promoted side Sheffield United, scoring in the third minute of their 2-1 win over the Blades.

The former Union Berlin striker ended August with a bang, scoring another goal against Manchester United at Old Trafford, but his team unfortunately lost 3-2 to the Red Devils.

According to Soccernet, Awoniyi is up against another African superstar, Bryan Mbeumo, for the award. The Cameroon international has also had a good start with Brentford in the absence of Ivan Toney.

Other players nominated for the awards are Brighton & Hove Albion forward, Kaoru Mitoma; West Ham winger, Jarrod Bowen; and Tottenham Hotspur playmaker, James Maddison.


Awoniyi's impressive performances at the beginning of the season didn't go unnoticed by Super Eagles gaffer, Jose Peseiro.

The Portuguese manager included the 26-year-old striker in his 23-man squad to face Sao Tome and Principe in Nigeria's final Africa Cup of Nations qualifier.

The Nottingham Forest star is currently in the Super Eagles camp in Uyo, Akwa Ibom, with the other 22 players.

I think it should be Awonoyi, the guy as been on form for a long time now

Well deserved

Dude is highly underrated, scoring against arsenal and man U..

Very good player,watched him against man u. He scored a wonderful goal. He should win it.
See as everyone on this thread is celebrating him regardless of tribe. If we picked our leaders this way,Nigeria would have been okay go out and see the number of hungry people,even on this forum we have lots of beggars. We pick leaders so that we can brag that our region is leading. Right now Yoruba's are leading they have ruled and deputised more than any region but how does that help them,they are still poor people there as they are poor people all over Nigeria. It is so painful seeing adults behave like kids,even kids play among themselves irrespective of tribe. So I can say kids have sense than lots of adult here.

Martineli

Ll , so Trossard can rot on the bench for life Abi? He's a good player but I don't think we need such in our team for now. A replacement for Saka is all I think we need comes January cos body no be firewood oo.

Awoniyi all the way. 3 goals and 1 assist
