Maritzburg sign Ghanaian goalkeeper

Maritzburg United have signed goalkeeper Richard Ofori as they look to strengthen their squad ahead of the 2017/18 season.


The Ghanaian international, who has been linked with a move to Mamelodi Sundowns, joins the Team of Choice on a three-year deal.

Ofori is set to take over the number one jersey at Maritzburg after the club parted ways with Namibian goalkeeper Virgil Vries at the end of last season.

Maritzburg announced Ofori’s signing on their social media platforms on Thursday.

The 23-year-old goalkeeper was part of Ghana’s 2017 African Nations Cup.

He was also part of the 2013 Fifa Under-20 World Cup squad, as well as the 2015 All Africa Cup Games.
