Ex Real Tamale United and Black Stars goalkeeper\u00a0Abubakar Damba has opted for Joseph Wollacott to lead the goalkeeping department for the Black Stars in the upcoming 2022 Fifa World Cup to be hosted by Qatar.<\/p>\n
Coach Otto Addo named five (5) goalkeepers in the 55 man preliminary squad he released ahead of the teams preparation towards the Mundial which begins on the 20th November, 2022.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Asante Kotoko\u2019s Ibrahim Danlad, Abdul Manaf Nurudeen (Eupen, Belgium), Richard Ofori (Orlando Pirates, South African, Joseph Wollacott (Charlton Athletic) and Lawrence Ati-Zigi (FC St. Gallen) are the men expected to compete for positions in the team as goalie\u2019s for the Stars but Damba believes \u2026\u2026 could be chosen ahead of the rest.<\/p>\n
He said \u201cWe played the qualifiers and had one goalkeeper who had shown consistencies throughout, that is Jojo Wollacott the most used among all the keepers so far, all things being equal he might be the first choice,\u201d GNA Sports.<\/p>\n
Damba also bemoans that fact Ghana currently lacks goalkeepers who are gifted in the team.<\/p>\n
\u201cOne of our challenges is that we don\u2019t have goalkeepers who are very gifted in the team in as much as we would not be satisfied with their performances because of comparisons.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe see other goalkeepers playing for their clubs and their nations performing well so we do comparisons but I\u2019m very positive that we can do well,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n
