After losing his place to Sipho Chaine at Orlando Pirates during the 2023/24 season, Richard Ofori now finds himself in need of a new home.
Richard Ofori is one of the top PSL players who unfortunately find themselves without a club after he was chucked out at Pirates. The Buccaneers who are looking to take the torch of dominance from Sundowns, parted ways a number of players, including Kermit Erasmus – who could return to Cape Town City – Fortune Makaringe and Thabang Monare, just to name a few.
Despite being 30 years old, the Ghanaian goalkeeper has the opportunity to explore options overseas or remain in the PSL. With his vast experience and popularity in South Africa, Ofori’s agent should face no difficulty in securing him a new team. However, the main concern lies in how Pirates will find a suitable replacement for him.
The dressing room will definitely feel the absence of his invaluable experience, thus it is crucial for the Pirates to seek a goalkeeper who possesses equal or similar talent to join their ranks.
