The former Celtic midfielder, who arrived at The Hawthorns as a free agent earlier this season, netted the first goal as Albion came from behind to beat Sunderland in early December.

Rogic fired home with the outside of his boot from the edge of the box - before Daryl Dike headed home a winner.

The Aussie international faces competition for the award from Burnley’s Johann Berg Gudmundsson, Kion Etete of Cardiff City and Luton Town’s Alfie Doughty.

Albion fans can have a say in the award and vote for Rogic by going to the EFL website before 5pm on January 16.

It comes after Carlos Corberan and Alex Palmer missed out on the manager and player of the month awards respectively.
