Young Nigerian goalkeeper Eze Gospel has been named Burscough FC’s Player of the Month for September, after a string of outstanding performances in the West Lancashire Football League Premier Division.
Eze, who joined the club during the recent transfer window on loan from Everton U18s, has quickly established himself as one of the most reliable goalkeepers in the division. His commanding presence in goal and consistency between the sticks have made him an instant fan favourite for the Linnets and the Green Army.

The 18-year-old’s journey carries a strong sense of legacy, as he follows in the footsteps of his late father, who was also a goalkeeper during his playing career in Nigeria. For Eze, every match is not just about building his own reputation but also honouring his father’s memory through the gloves.
His rapid rise in English grassroots football has already drawn attention, and many believe he has the potential to climb much higher in the football ladder if he maintains his form and continues his development.
With September’s honour under his belt, Eze Gospel is already being tipped as a rising star to watch in the coming months — and as his performances grow sharper, the Green Army may just be witnessing the start of a remarkable career.
