Danjuma up for Championship goal prize

Arnaut Danjuma's stunning strike in the win away at Carrow Road has been nominated for the Sky Bet Championship Goal of the Month award.

The Dutchman's rocket has been judged to be among the top three strikes across the division in April, joining Tom Lawrence and Rob Dickie in the running.

The nominations are as follows:

Arnaut Danjuma – Norwich City 1-3 AFC BOURNEMOUTH

Not content with dancing along the touchline, dragging the ball past two defenders and then slicing infield, the Dutchman cut a perfectly struck shot back against his direction of travel.

Tom Lawrence – Reading 2-1 DERBY COUNTY

With his relegation-threatened side trailing 2-0 and in desperate need of inspiration, Lawrence took it upon himself to stride forward and unleash a stunning 30-yarder into the far top corner.

Rob Dickie – Middlesbrough 1-2 QUEENS PARK RANGERS

Central defenders aren’t supposed to do this. As impressive as his long-range piledriver was, which was still rising as it struck the net, Dickie’s nonchalant celebration was even better.
