Kaoru Mitoma’s sensational solo strike against Wolves has been nominated for the Premier League Goal of the Season – you can vote for Kaoru’s goal to win the award here.
The Japan winger embarked on a run from just inside the opposition’s half, skipping past a number of challenges before finding the bottom corner in our 4-1 win at Molineux in August.
“The moment I dribbled past the first challenge I found space," Kaoru explained after the game. "While dribbling, I was thinking 'maybe I’ll go through', in terms of my speed, plus they were late to cover, which was pretty lucky too.

“I wanted to do something the opponent won’t like. And especially in the first half, we had space on the side. The quality was great and in terms of dribbling I think I stood out which was good."
