Ghana goalkeeper Jojo Wollacot reveals long-term targets
Ghana international Joseph Luke Wollacot has revealed his long-term target as a goalkeeper.
The 25-year-old who plies his trade for English fourth tier side Swindon Town is currently the number choice goalkeeper for the national team.
He kept the post when Ghana edged past the Super Eagles of Nigeria to book a place at the 2022 FIFA World Cup tournament.
Speaking to Accra-based Happy FM monitored by Footballghana.com, Wollacot who has been named in the English League Two team of the season disclosed his long-term target is to play in the Champions League, Premier League, and also win trophies.
“Every player wants to play at the highest level, possibly, you would want to play in the Champions League, Premier League and you would want to play in Europe and win trophies”
“So, I think, long-term that is the goals but for now, I just have to focus at where I am and keep working hard” he said.
The enterprising goalkeeper then revealed his role model is Joe Hart, who once featured for Manchester City.
“As a goalkeeper, growing up in the United Kingdom, I used to watch Joe Hart, he is my role model”
“I like his mental side of the game; people talk about him that he is not good enough but he is proved people wrong which is something I admire” he said.
He has conceded 45 goals in 37 League Two this season.
Wollacot contract with Swindon will elapse at the end of the season and will decide on his future when the season is over.
