Eight Premier League stars nominated for April POTM

We saw plenty of goals flying in throughout April in the Premier League, but which star is going to take home the Player of the Month (POTM) award?

The Team of the Season event is well underway on FIFA 21 Ultimate Team, but there is still room for more high-rated special cards.

The official EPL POTM nominees have been announced and there is potential for some great new cards.

Latest news - La Liga TOTS

EA has teased two players in their new Ultimate Team dedicated Instagram page.

The first is a central midfielder with 85 Shooting. As these stats will be greatly improved it is almost impossible to narrow it down, although ut is too low for players like Toni Kroos.

The second player is a right-winger with 92 Dribbling.

The attribute again seems low for a TOTS star and it is certainly not Lionel Messi. It could point to Real Sociedad's Portu or Sevilla's Lucas Ocampos.

Release Date

Time has run out on Kelechi Iheanacho’s POTM SBC as it expired on Thursday, 29 April, but there is no news on the Premier League POTM for April just yet.

Iheanacho picked up the award for March after scoring five goals in just three games including a hat-trick against Sheffield United.

The Leicester striker has continued his red-hot form and will be looking to retain the POTM trophy after another impressive month.

Another award for the Nigerian could see a rating of 88 OVR with great pace and finishing attributes.

Nominees

Eight players have been officially nominated for April Player of the Month.

Leicester striker Iheanacho could retain the award, while West Ham's Jesse Lingard gets his third nomination in a row.

Trent Alexander-Arnold

Liverpool went unbeaten in April as they look to climb up the league and qualify for next season's Champions League.

Right-back Trent Alexander-Arnold was somewhere near his best too, scoring once and assisting two more.

Allan Saint-Maximin

We could have a CF Allan Saint-Maximin card on our hands this month.

Newcastle's mercurial forward played in a more central role, scoring against Burnley and assisting two others last month.

Chris Wood

With a total of four goals and three assists in April, Chris Wood is one of the frontrunners for the April Player of the Month award.

Burnley’s target man took his goal tally into double figures with a hattrick against Wolves and should feature in Team of the Week 31 too.

Jesse Lingard

Jesse Lingard has been nominated for Player of the Month twice since arriving in East London, but could it be the third time lucky for the England international?

Lingard scored four times in April and provided an assist so is definitely among the contenders for this month’s award.

Mason Greenwood

England wonderkid Mason Greenwood found his form last month, scoring four goals in four games.

Playing on the right, Greenwood also provided an assist in United's 3-1 win over Spurs.

Matheus Pereira

West Brom’s good form looks to be too little too late as they will need a miracle to avoid relegation from the Premier League this season.

Brazilian star Matheus Pereira is the driving force behind their recent success though with four goals and two assists in four matches.

Kelechi Iheanacho

Leicester may have only picked up two wins in April, but that has not stopped Kelechi Iheanacho from finding the back of the net.

Iheanacho scored four goals in April and provided an assist in games against Crystal Palace and Southampton.

Stuart Dallas

Leeds were another unbeaten side last month, and that included an impressive victory over table-toppers and Champions League finalists Manchester City.

Stuart Dallas scored both goals in that 2-1 win and is the final nominee for April POTM.
