The Premier League Goal of the Season shortlist is set and the award will be decided this week after a public vote is combined with the views of an expert panel. Fans can cast their ballot on the Premier League official website until 12 p.m. BST (7 a.m. ET, 4 a.m. PT) on Wednesday, May 27.<\/p>\n
Past winners show the prize is not reserved for household names. Sofiane Boufal took the 2016\u201317 honour and Julio Enciso won in 2022\u201323. The most recent recipient was Manchester City\u2019s Omar Marmoush, who had only arrived in England a few months earlier. Three former Premier League Goal of the Season winners \u2014 Son, Salah and Alejandro Garnacho \u2014 went on to claim the FIFA Pusk\u00e1s Award as the world\u2019s most beautiful goal that year.<\/p>\n
All but one of the strikes on the shortlist were official Goal of the Month winners during the campaign. There is no official Goal of the Month for May, but West Ham\u2019s Taty Castellanos serves as the month\u2019s representative in the season award. Striking the bouncing ball early caught the goalkeeper unaware and produced a sublime moment, although it was only a consolation and did not keep the Hammers in the Premier League.<\/p>\n
The list also includes Kaoru Mitoma, who positioned himself at the far post and struck a near-perfect volley. Tottenham\u2019s February Goal of the Month came from Dominic Solanke, an improvised scorpion kick that turned a poor cross into an excellent finish. Emiliano Buend\u00eda\u2019s October goal for Aston Villa versus Tottenham began with a phenomenal pass from Matty Cash and a superb touch and layoff from Lucas Digne before the precision finish.<\/p>\n
William Osula produced a last-minute winner to down Manchester United and then scored five more in his next eight league appearances to end the campaign strongly. Tyler Adams combined vision and execution to spot Sunderland goalkeeper Robin Roefs off his line and deliver a long-range chip. Mart\u00edn Zubimendi\u2019s September goal against Nottingham Forest stood out among his five Premier League strikes for the season. Dominik Szoboszlai closed out a perfect August for Liverpool with an inch-perfect free kick to snatch a late winner over eventual champions Arsenal.<\/p>\n
Voter preferences will be weighted with the expert panel\u2019s selections to determine the final winner.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
