Alloa Athletic’s new goalkeeper is 27 year old, Nigerian, Tochukwu Philip Ogayi

Ogayi’s last club was SV Tasmania Berlin but after travelling to Scotland for work he successfully trialled and won a contract with his new local team – the Wasps. He’s also played for SC Khakovka – a place recently in the news as the massive hydroelectric dam and power plant was destroyed and caused catastrophic flooding in war-torn southern Ukraine.

His debut came very quickly after international clearance was achieved with some impressive stops as Alloa ran out 3-1 winners over Stenhousemuir in Tuesday’s Viaplay Cup Group A match.

Looking forward to seeing more of ‘Toochi’ as we head on to our final game of the group and then league action.
