Arnaut Danjuma's strike away at Norwich City has been awarded as the Championship Goal of the Month.

Shrugging off stiff competition from Tom Lawrence of Derby and Rob Dickie of QPR, the award goes alongside Danjuma's Championship Player of the Month prize which the winger also won for April.

Danjuma's Championship GotM winner

The 24-year-old received 43% of the public vote and is currently tied with Dominic Solanke as the Cherries' leading scorer across the season with 15, as Jonathan Woodgate's side prepare to enter the play-offs next Monday evening at home to Brentford.

Danjuma said: “I’m delighted to win this award and would like to thank everyone who voted for me.

“It was an important goal because it helped us pick up a big three points against a great Norwich side. When I cut inside, I wasn’t sure if I should have shot earlier, but I took a second touch and then hit it with my laces and it flew into the top corner.

“It was a great game and a great win for us. We went to Norwich with a mission – to win the game – and I’m delighted that I could help us achieve that. It was a big step in helping us achieve our place in the play-offs.”
