Dennis who joined Watford this season from Belgium has been in outstanding form scoring six league goals already this season.
He scored twice and had two assists in November for Watford and has been a threat to opposition with his pace up front.
This is the first time the 24-year-old will be nominated for the award and will hope to join other Nigerians like Austine Okocha, Peter Odemwingie, Odion Ighalo and Kelechi Iheanacho, who have bagged the award.
On Wednesday he was sensational in Watford’s last game with league leaders Chelsea scoring an equalizer for Claudio Ranieri’s side but they lost the game 2:1
Watford will be up against Manchester City tomorrow at the Vicarage Road as the Hornets battles their way out of relegation. Dennis is expected to be fit for selection as the Nigerian will look to build his portfolio against bug teams.
