Former USA youth international and AZAL midfielder John Oluremi has commented on scoring the Goal of the Month for August in the Azeri Premier League.

Recall that his 45th minute strike against Sumqayä±t in the fourth round of matches was chosen as the most eye-catching by the panelists.

The 28 - year - old told azerisport.com : “Every player likes to receive individual awards. Honestly, I was not expecting it.

“I have won this award before, but not in Azerbaijan. I like good surprises. Now the goal against Sumqayit, I will remember forever.”

John Oluremi, who represented USA at the Fifa Under 20s in 2005, also scored in league games Qabala and Neftci.
