The Newcastle United midfielder netted a stunning backheeled volley at St. Mary's on what was his first start for the club since his move from French side Lyon in January.

The 52nd-minute strike earned the Magpies a 2-1 win, after Chris Wood had cancelled out Stuart Armstrong's effort before the break.

And the Brazilian international's first goal in black and white has been shortlisted for the division's monthly award, with United supporters able to vote for the 24-year-old to win from 1pm on Thursday.

Guimarães is joined on the shortlist by Watford's Cucho Hernandez, Chelsea's Reece James, Arsenal's Gabriel Martinelli and Wolves' Ruben Neves.
