Black Stars goalkeeper Joojo Wollacott has joined League One side Crawley Town FC on a permanent transfer from Hibernian FC. The 27-year-old has signed a two-year contract with the club, bringing his expertise and experience to the team.

Wollacott began his career at Bristol City, progressing through the academy before enjoying various loan spells at non-league clubs and Norwegian side Bergsoy.

He made his professional debut at Forest Green Rovers, where he impressed by saving a penalty in a 0-0 draw with Charlton Athletic.

The shot-stopper then joined Swindon Town, where he worked with current Crawley Town manager Scott Lindsey. Wollacott has fond memories of their time together and praised Lindsey’s coaching style.
