The Rotherham forward - who the Blues are trying to re-sign on loan - is among six contenders for the December PFA Bristol Street Motors monthly prize.

Yates is in the running after scoring five goals in four games in December.

The 22-year-old struck against Colchester, Crawley, Oldham and Macclesfield.

He is up against Forest Green's George Williams and Reece Brown, Grimsby's Elliot Embleton, Macclesfield's Nathan Cameron and Mansfield's Ryan Sweeney.
