We deduce the mass of the pseudoscalar glueball G from an {eta}-{eta}{sup '}-G mixing formalism based on the anomalous Ward identity for transition matrix elements. With the inputs from the recent KLOE experiment, we find a solution for the pseudoscalar glueball mass around (1.4{+-}0.1) GeV, which is fairly insensitive to a range of inputs with or without Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka-rule violating effects. This affirms that {eta}(1405), having a large production rate in the radiative J/{psi} decay and not seen in {gamma}{gamma} reactions, is indeed a leading candidate for the pseudoscalar glueball. Other relevant quantities including the anomaly and pseudoscalar density matrix elements are obtained. The decay widths for G{yields}{gamma}{gamma}, l{sup +}l{sup -} are also predicted.
