Super Eagles star player Emmanuel Dennis has been named the winner of the Watford Player of the Month and Goal of the Month awards for December.

Emmanuel Dennis Wins Both Player and Goal of Month for Watford
In the Player of the Month competition, the Nigeria international came up against Men’s teammate Moussa Sissoko and Golden Girls Emma Beckett and Georgie Ferguson. Despite the postponed games and the strong group of nominees, Emmanuel Dennis maintained his form taking his goal tally for this season to eight goals with three more strikes against Chelsea, Brentford and West Ham United.
In the Goal of the Month category, the 24-year-old faced tough competition with three other beautiful strikes over the festive period. The forward produced a fantastic move to find the top corner with his left foot, dribbling past West Ham’s centre-backs to release a devastating finish into the opposite corner; although they lost the game, the Goal is one they will not forget in a rush.
