Dominic Calvert-Lewin has been voted PFA Premier League Player of the Month for December, following a prolific run of form that caught the eye of football fans around the world.

The 28-year-old forward was on form throughout the festive period, finding the net in every league match he featured in during December. Calvert-Lewin struck six goals across five Premier League appearances, spearheading a strong sequence of results against elite opposition.

He began the month by opening the scoring in a 3-1 victory over Chelsea, before continuing his hot streak in a pulsating 3-3 draw with Liverpool. Further goals followed in a hard-earned 1-1 draw away at Brentford, as the striker’s consistency continued to prove decisive.

In the process, Calvert-Lewin became the first player this season to score in six consecutive Premier League matches, underlining his reliability and influence during a demanding run of fixtures.

His impact was felt well beyond Leeds. With six league goals in December, Calvert-Lewin finished the month as the leading goalscorer across Europe’s top-five leagues, a remarkable feat that highlights the scale of his form.

The forward saved one of his finest displays for Crystal Palace, where he scored twice in an emphatic 4-1 win, before rounding off December by getting on the scoresheet once again in a 1-1 draw with Sunderland - a fitting conclusion to an outstanding month that earned him the backing of fans worldwide.
