Jojo Wollacot Has Signed for Hibernian : Ghana goalkeeper Jojo Wollacott has successfully completed a permanent transfer to Scottish side Hibernian, signing a three-year contract.
The 26-year-old shot-stopper joins Hibernian from Charlton Athletic for an undisclosed transfer fee.
Wollacott, who has made 11 appearances for Ghana since 2021, reunites with Hibernian manager Lee Johnson. The pair previously worked together during their time at Bristol City.
He’s athletic, brave, and confident and, with big competitions coming up, it’s important we’re strong in the goalkeeping department,” said Johnson.
“He’s a player I’ve known for some time and it’s great to see that he’s starting to fulfil his potential. He now has over 100 games under his belt and has played on the international stage with Ghana.”
Wollacott, who missed last year’s World Cup due to a finger injury sustained in the warm-up for his last outing before the tournament, will provide competition for captain David Marshall.
After multiple loan spells during his seven years at Bristol City, he joined Swindon Town for the 2021-22 season before making the switch to League One with The Addicks last summer, where he played 20 games.
