Ghana defender Joseph Aidoo has been named Celta Vigo player of the month for January following his outstanding display for the club.

Aidoo was a colossus for Celta who won seven points from a possible 12 in January to climb up to 12th on the La Liga table.

In the four games played by the club during the month, he lasted an entire duration of three. Aidoo couldn’t complete the Sevilla game due to a thigh injury.

“I am very happy, it is very important to me, it gives me a lot of confidence.” the defender said after picking up the award.

Aidoo contributed 20 clearances, six tackles and six interceptions in defence.
