Ghana goalie Jojo Wollacott named English League Two keeper of the season

Black Stars goalkeeper Jojo Wollacot has been named Goalkeeper of the Season in the English League Two after making the EFL team of the season. 

The 25-year-old has been in scintillating form since joining Swindon Town from Bristol City last summer, making 46 appearances in all competitions and keeping 11 clean sheets.

His outstanding performances for Swindon earned him his first international call up, representing Ghana at the Africa Cup of Nations and helping the Black Stars return to the FIFA World Cup.

Jojo Wollacott has also been nominated for Swindon Town Player of the season following his incredible displays for the club this season.

“Swindon’s goalkeeper has enjoyed an outstanding campaign, especially during the first few months of the season. Having conceded a respectable 45 goals in 38 games, Wollacott has regularly offered his attacking teammates the opportunity to go and win games with excellent saves and an assured presence between the sticks,” wrote the club.

“His 11 clean sheets have also come during a campaign in which he has been called up for his country, Ghana, and helped the Black Stars qualify for the World Cup in Qatar. Town will be keen to tie him down to a new contract with his deal running out in the summer.”
