Burton Albion Secure Goalkeeper Jordan Amissah in £300k Deal from Ross County

Burton Albion complete the signing of German-born goalkeeper Jordan Amissah from Ross County in a £300k deal. The 23-year-old signs a two-year contract with an option for extension, returning to the Brewers after a previous loan spell. Manager Gary Bowyer praises Amissah's Scottish Premiership experience.

Transfer Details

Burton Albion have completed a £300,000 move for goalkeeper Jordan Amissah from Scottish Championship side Ross County, marking their first major signing of the summer transfer window. The 23-year-old shot-stopper returns to the Pirelli Stadium on a two-year deal with a club option for 2027.

Career Trajectory

  • 2023 Loan Spell: Made 15 appearances during initial Burton stint
  • Scottish Premiership Campaign: Featured in 23 matches during Ross County's relegation season
  • International Recognition: Ghana U23 call-up in 2024 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers

Manager's Perspective

"Jordan's exposure to high-pressure matches against Celtic and Rangers will be invaluable," said Brewers manager Gary Bowyer. "His commanding presence and distribution skills align perfectly with our tactical evolution."

Strategic Signing

The deal addresses Burton's goalkeeping needs following Max Crocombe's departure to Millwall. Amissah becomes the fourth signing under new sporting director Martin Paterson, signaling the club's ambition to improve on last season's 14th-place finish in League One.
