In his first full season as the Philadelphia Union’s starting goalkeeper, Andre Blake has done nothing but impress. Not only has he cemented his starting role for the Union after being the first ever goalkeeper to be selected Number 1 in the MLS SuperDraft, but he has also become the first choice goalkeeper for the Jamaican National Team.
Blake expressed how happy he was with the award:
I’m extremely grateful for this award. To win Goalkeeper of the Year in my first full season as a starter is something I will always cherish.
