Newly-appointed Black Stars head coach Otto Addo has disclosed that describing Jojo Wollacott as the team's number one would be difficult.

The English-born of Ghanaian heritage has been struggling for regular playing time at Scottish Premier League side Hibernian FC after a long injury layoff.

Despite the limited playing time, Otto Addo handed an invitation to the Wollacott for the international friendlies against Nigeria and Uganda.

Otto Addo in an interview ahead of the Black Stars' final game against the Cranes of Uganda, he stated that the 27-year-old shot-stopper cannot be described as the no.1 of the Black Stars despite impressing during training.

“I am not quite sure yet. I left it open. I have to say that Ati-Zigi had a good match. I gave him the start because he is a regular player in his club” Otto Addo said.

“Frederick is new and young. I think he made a good first impression. He is very, very calm on the ball and has a good technique in the goal”

“Joseph Wollacott at the moment is not playing in his club so it's difficult to say that he will be the number one at the moment but I think tomorrow I will give him the chance to play and to show himself and we will keep on watching them and observing them and we will decide in June who will be the goalkeeper who will stand in the goal”

Ghana will face the Cranes of Uganda this afternoon at the Stade Grade Marrakech in Morocco at 4:00pm
