Black Stars goalkeeper, Lawrence Ati Zigi has been nominated for Switzerland Super League best goalkeeper award for the first phase of the season following a stellar display
The 26 year old offered his outmost best in the period under review and is very optimistic of landing this prestigious accolade.
Having made solid 58 saves in the first round for FC ST Gallen 1879, the ex- Black Satellites goalie will look to emerge as the victor for this award but faces a stiffer opposition from David Douline (Servette FC), Valon Fazlu (FC Aarau), Cedric Itten (FC Young Boys) and Koro Kone (Yverdon FC).
The former FC Schoaux netminder was initially not considered by Ghana for the World Cup but could only come in following the injuries of Jojo Wollacott and Richard Ofori.
However, it turned out to be a real tale of 'from zero to hero' as he commanded the post so well for the Black Stars in Qatar, with many a Ghana faithful tipping him to be the first option from now henceforth.
Ati Zigi is currently on a short break with the Swiss league expected to resume on January 23, 2022.
