Togolese goalkeeper Agassa Kossi, who plays for Reims in the French Ligue 1, has been recognized as the most requested goalkeeper in the league by Opta statisticians. Despite his impressive performances, Agassa was not among the four goalkeepers nominated for the UNFP trophy, leading to some observers expressing their disappointment at what they perceive as an injustice.
However, Agassa himself seems to be taking the situation in stride and is not frustrated by the omission. In an interview with Africa Top Sports, he expressed his focus on the bigger goal, which is to stay in Ligue 1. Agassa acknowledged that the nominated goalkeepers deserved their places and suggested that he needs to work even harder for the upcoming seasons.
Reims, the club Agassa plays for, is still in the race to remain in Ligue 1. They are currently four points behind the first relegation spot, and the team is set to host Lorient for the penultimate day of the season. Agassa’s commitment to staying in the top tier of French football reflects his determination and positive mindset towards future challenges.
