Published: April 09, 2021

Manchester United and Chelsea-linked striker Daryl Dike has been nominated for the PFA Fans' Player of the Month award for March 2021.

The Orlando City loanee started five of the six matches contested by Barnsley in the Championship last month, helping the Reds earn four wins and one draw.

Dike was on the scoresheet in back-to-back matches against Queens Park Rangers and Birmingham City, before bagging a brace in the win against Wycombe Wanderers.

In addition, the Oklahoma-born attacker made his second appearance for the United States national team during the international break in March, playing the last 27 minutes of a 2-1 win over Northern Ireland.

One-time Nigeria Football Federation target Arnaut Danjuma (AFC Bournemouth), Adam Masina (Watford), Ivan Toney (Brentford), Emi Buendia (Norwich City) and Dillon Phillips (Cardiff City) are the other nominees.

Dike was voted Barnsley's Player of the Month and FLW Fans' Player of the Month for March, and his thunderous strike against Birmingham City was chosen as Barnsley's Goal of the Month for March.
