Antoine Semenyo's sensational solo strike against Liverpool on the opening day of the 2025/26 English Premier League has been nominated for Goal of the Month for August.  The Ghanaian striker netted a brace in the 4-2 defeat but his second, which saw him make a solo run from inside his own half before twisting and turning Ibrahima Konate to fire from distance.

Semenyo will face competition from Tottenham Hotspur's Richarlison, who netted a spectacular bicycle kick against Burnely, and Dominik Szoboszlai of Liverpool.

The Hungarian midfielder's scored a stunning freekick to win the match against Arsneal last weekend.

Others on the list are Lucas Paqueta of West Ham United for his goal against Chelsea, James Garner of Everton, Rio Ngumoha's winner against Newcastle United, Kierna  Drewsbury Hall's strike against Wolves and Marc Guehi's curler versus Nottingham Forest.
