Premier League Goal of the Month

This article is about the accolade awarded by the Premier League. For the Match of the Day accolade, see BBC Goal of the Month.

The Premier League Goal of the Month is an association football award that recognises the player who is deemed to have scored the best Premier League goal each month of the season from August to April. The winner is chosen by a combination of an online public vote, which contributes to 10% of the final tally, and a panel of experts.^[1]

Andros Townsend is the first player to have won the award three times, and the first to have won with different clubs.

Pedro is the first player to have won the award multiple times in the same season.

At the end of the season, the nine monthly winners are put forward for the Premier League Goal of the Season, which is chosen using the same method, although the 2016–17 award featured, and indeed was won by, a goal from May which did not go to a vote.^[2]

The award was introduced for the 2016–17 season as the Budweiser Goal of the Month by its sponsored name for eight seasons; it is currently known as the Guinness Goal of the Month.

The first recipient of the award was Middlesbrough striker Cristhian Stuani for his away goal against Sunderland. Pedro was the first player to have won the award multiple times, while Andros Townsend was the first player to have won it three times, and the first to achieve it with different clubs. Thanks to Miguel Almirón (April 2022) and Allan Saint-Maximin (August 2022), Newcastle United became first club to have consecutive winners, while Wolverhampton Wanderers was the first to do it in the same season, with Jonny and Matheus Nunes winning March and April 2023 awards respectively. In the 2023–24 season, Manchester United became the first club to win four Goal of the Month awards, all scored by different players. Winning in April 2024 and August 2024, Cole Palmer became the first player to win the award consecutively across two seasons.

As of April 2025^[update], the most recent recipient of the award is Brighton & Hove Albion player Carlos Baleba.
