West Brom striker, Osaze Odemwingie today picked up the Barclays Player-of-the-Month award for April.

It is the second
time this season the Nigerian, who already has 14 goals to his name,
will be receiving the award after previously been named the league’s
best player last September.

Odemwingie has
enjoyed a sensational month and his scoring exploits have helped to all
but secure Albion’s Barclays Premier League survival.

He began April with a superb performance against Liverpool, winning the two penalties Chris Brunt netted to seal a 2-1 victory.

The Nigeria
international then had a hand in all three of Albion’s goals, in a
thrilling 3-2 win against Sunderland at the Stadium of Light, scoring
one and setting up two.

His outstanding
form continued with goals against Chelsea and Tottenham, and he rounded
off the month by firing the equaliser in a 2-1 derby victory over
Villa, at The Hawthorns – becoming the first-ever Baggies player to
score in four successive Premier League games.

The decision was made by the Barclays Awards Panel, which includes
representatives from football’s governing bodies, the media and fans.
