Joel Piroe action shot against Coventry City

Swansea City striker Joel Piroe has been nominated for the Sky Bet Championship Player of the Month award for December.

The Dutchman was directly involved in six of Swansea’s eight goals during the final month of 2022.

Two of those goals came in the win over Watford, with Piroe sweeping home Liam Cullen’s pass for his first and then producing a superb finish from the edge of the area for the other.

He is nominated alongside Middlesbrough forward Chuba Akpom, Sheffield United’s Iliman Ndiaye and West Brom goalkeeper Alex Palmer.

The winner will be announced on Friday, January 13.
