Top Belgian newspaper DHNet has nominated Standard Liege striker Imoh Ezekiel for the Player of the Month in December.

To clinch the award, Ezekiel has to see off competition from Mbokani Dieumerci, the Congolese striker of Anderlecht and midfielder Maxime Lestienne, who plays for Club Brugge.

This is the second time Ezekiel has been shortlisted for the award after his nomination last August.

Note that the former 36 Lion ace has scored in each of the last five games played by Standard Liege in the Belgian championship.
