Super Eagles forward Moses Simon has been nominated for Ligue 1 Goal of the Month for December/January, Afrosport reports.
Simon makes the shortlist thanks to his superb strike for Nantes in their 1-0 victory over Rennes at Stade de la Beaujoire on 8 December.
The 29- year-old dribbled past three defenders before hitting a right-footed curler into the top corner.
