Dominic Solanke: Bournemouth striker is Premier League player of month for December

Dominic Solanke has become the first Bournemouth player to be voted as the Premier League's player of the month.

Among Solanke's highlights last month was a first career hat-trick in the Cherries' 3-2 win away to Nottingham Forest on 23 December.

His impressive form has helped Bournemouth climb to 12th in the table.

The former Chelsea and Liverpool forward, who won one full England cap in 2017, has doubled his league goal tally from last season, when he scored six times in 33 appearances.

He is level in third place with Tottenham's Son Heung-min in the Premier League top scorers list, two behind Manchester City's Erling Haaland and Liverpool's Mohamed Salah.
