Tyreece John-Jules has been nominated for December’s Premier League 2 Player of the Month award.

The 17-year-old forward has impressed Freddie Ljungberg at under-23 level - and as a result, he’s been tasked with leading the line on nine occasions this season.

The England under-18 international featured twice in the PL2 over December, scoring a sublime goal away at an experienced Liverpool side.

The shortlist was chosen by the Premier League's Football Development Panel after PL2 club managers nominated the best performances by opposing players in each of their matches.

Other contenders for the award are:

Aaron Connolly (Brighton & Hove Albion FC)

Joshua Knight (Leicester City FC)

Rabbi Matondo (Manchester City FC)

Moses Makasi (West Ham United)

The winner will be announced at 10am (UK time) on Friday, January 11.
