EFL goalkeeper sends fans into meltdown with utterly ridiculous ‘skill of the season’ in pre-season clash
SWANSEA CITY goalkeeper Lawrence Vigouroux stunned fans with his “skill of the season” in a pre-season clash.
The shot-stopper made a move from relegated Burnley to the Welsh side this summer on a two-year deal.
After coming off the bench in Swansea’s pre-season friendly against FC Koln on Wednesday Vigouroux did not hold back in showing his new team his utterly ridiculous skill.
The Chilean player executed a superb 360-degree spin and then dropped the ball on his foot as he readied himself for the goal kick.
And fans have called the donned the Championship side news goalkeeper with the “skill of the season”.
Another added: “You either have it or you don’t.”
A third then put: “Coldddddddddd.”
While a fourth said: “Making sure nobody is hiding behind him. Sensible.”
However, his impressive talent was not enough to keep a clean sheet as Koln beat Luke Williams’ side 2-1.
Vigouroux hoped to become a Premier League star after graduating from the Tottenham Academy and signing his first professional contract in June 2013.

But following a disappointing loan stint at non-league side Hyde, the North London-born star made another attempt at securing a Premier League opportunity with Liverpool.
At Anfield, Vigouroux quickly became the first-choice goalkeeper for the reserve side and then signed a two-year contract at the Reds.
Then a successful loan at Swindon Town saw the goalkeeper make a permanent move to the League One side in 2015.
He then went on loan to Waterford followed by a transfer to Chilean side Everton de Vina del Mar in 2019.
Having left the South American side without making a single appearance Vigiouroux headed to East London side Leyton Orient for three seasons making over 152 appearances.
The goalie then joined newly promoted Premier League side Burnley in 2023 but the shot-stopper still could not secure a Premier League start.
