Nigeria's Odion Ighalo, three others nominated for English Premier League's Best African player award

Nigerian international striker, Odion Ighalo has been 
nominated for English Premier League's Best African player award for the
 month of November. Ighalo will face his African international brothers, the likes of 
Ghana’s Swansea City star Andre Ayew, Congolese winger of Crystal Palace
 Yannick Bolassie and Ivorien Arouna Kone of Everton.
Ighalo who has scored eight goals in the premier leagues matches, makes him the highest Hornets goal scorer in the league.
He scored for Nigeria in the 2017 Africa Cup of Nation’s 
qualifiers against Chad also scored for Nigeria in the international 
friendly against Cameroon in October.
According to a release by the New African Soccer, Ighalo 
won the award by an overwhelming majority in October, and he seemed to 
continue where he left off in October, playing well enough to earn him a
 place in the shortlist for November.
The Nigerian international played every minute of Watford’s
 November fixtures, which was a difficult month for them given the home 
loss to Manchester United and the away loss to Leicester City.
The award winner will be announced in a matter of days.
