Emre Can won the inaugural award, for 2016–17.

The shortlist features each of the season's nine Premier League Goal of the Month winners and on occasion, such as in 2016–17 and 2018–19, a goal from May which does not have a monthly vote. The winner is decided by a combination of an online public vote — which contributes to 10% of the final tally — and a panel of experts.[1]

The award was first given following the 2016–17 season and is currently known by its sponsored name, the Budweiser Goal of the Season. The Premier League has since backdated the award and named a winner for every season since its inception.[2]
