Orlando Pirates need to sign Ofori, but should keep Sandilands - Phali

Former Orlando Pirates goalkeeper Avril Phali has urged the Soweto giants to sign Maritzburg United’s Richard Ofori, saying he is what they need to reinforce their goalkeeping department.

While also advising Pirates to release French goalkeeper Joris Delle during the next window, Phali says that the club must keep current number one Wayne Sandilands for healthy competition in that area.

Ofori has been linked with a move to Pirates while Maritzburg confirmed that there is also interest for the goalkeeper from an unnamed Belgian club.

When the transfer window opens, Pirates might bid for Ofori, who would provide stern competition to Sandilands, who has had some impressive displays between the posts this season.
