EXCLUSIVE: Sochaux confirm transfer of Ghanaian goalkeeper Lawrence Ati Zigi to St Gallen

Published on: 17 January 2020

French side FC Sochaux-Montbéliard have confirmed the transfer of Ghanaian shot-stopper Lawrence Ati Zigi to Swiss giants St Gallen in the on-going January transfer window.

The 23-year-old has already arrived in Switzerland ahead of the proposed move after ending his two-year stay with French-side Sochaux on Thursday.

He will undergo a medical on Friday morning after successful negotiations with the Swiss top-flight club.

He has been the first-choice goalkeeper for Sochaux over the past few months following the injury Maxence Prevot who has been on the sidelines for some months.

The highly-rated youngster guided the club to finish 9th on the league table with some mouthwatering displays.

Following his impressive performances for the club, he was linked with a move to several clubs across Europe, however he has opted to sign for Swiss giants St Gallen in the coming days.

Sochaux have already signed experienced goalie Mehdi Jeannin as his replacement as they begin life after the Ghanaian.

He made 23 appearances for Sochaux since joining them in 2017.
