Ghanaian striker Joe Dodoo expressed confidence in himself after making his league debut for English club Doncaster Rovers.

Dodoo made his league debut last weekend when Doncaster played Wigan with the former losing 2-1 despite their striker playing 90 minutes.

His league debut followed his first match for the club which came against Rotterdam in the EFL Trophy on September 7, a day after he joined Doncaster as a free agent.

“I started my pre-season quite early at the end of May,” he said via the Doncaster Free Press

“For maybe four months I was training six days a week so that I was in great shape and ready to go.

“I did the same thing at Wigan last year,” Dodoo added.

“When I went to Wigan I was straight in, just like here, so I’ve got experience in terms of coming into a club and being put straight into the starting eleven and having to play a lot of games quickly.”

Elaborating on his pre-season preparations, Dodoo said he had been training with fellow professionals who were also without a club to simulate a training ground environment.

“I have friends who are professional footballers as well and were not signed up yet so we trained as a group to get more of a training ground feel, just without the numbers,” he said.

“I did that for about three months, and I always knew I was going to be ready when the time came,” Dodoo declared.

Dodoo came through the youth academy at Leicester City.
