Sheffield Wednesday striker Lucas Joao has been named as the PFA Fans Championship Player of the Month for November.

The Portuguese forward scored 3 times in 4 appearances last month and his goals were crucial in the Owls picking up vital points.

Joao came off the bench to help the Owls turn a 1-0 deficit into a 3-1 win against Huddersfield at Hillsborough and then a week later he levelled the scores at Ewood Park with a late headed goal in a 2-2 draw.

The 22-year-old has found the net 7 times so far in his first season in English football and his fine form has seen him earn his first full international caps for Portugal.

Joao is the 3rd Wednesday player in a row to win the monthly award, following on from Ross Wallace in September and Fernando Forestieri in October.
