Yves Bissouma lets fly with a brilliant curling effort that would open the scoring against Burnley.

Yves Bissouma’s wonder strike against Burnley has been shortlisted for the Premier League Goal of the Month for July – and he needs your vote!

The 23-year-old netted his first Premier League goal in Sunday’s 2-1 win, receiving the ball 25 yards from goal and bending it emphatically into the top left corner.

The Mali international faces competition for the award from Anthony Martial (Manchester United), Wilfried Zaha (Crystal Palace), Danny Welbeck (Watford), Alexandre Lacazette (Arsenal), David Silva (Manchester City), Raul Jimenez (Wolverhampton Wanderers) and Kevin De Bruyne (Manchester City).

Voting is now open and will close at 6pm on Friday.
