Elijah Adebayo, a Luton Town striker, is up for Premier League Player of the Month in January.
Adebayo scored the first hat-trick by a Luton Town player on the penultimate day of the month.
It was versus Brighton.
Seven years ago, the 26-year-old striker was in non-league football.
He is qualified to play for the Super Eagles because of his parentage.
Other nominees for the trophy are Conor Bradley, Kevin De Bruyne, Diogo Jota, Gabriel, and Richarlison.
