Ghana goalkeeper, Richard Ofori, has been named as the vice-captain of South African side, Orlando Pirates.
The 28-year-old will assist the new captain, Innocent Maela, following the departure of the previous skipper, Happy Jele.
Ofori joined Orlando Pirates from Maritzburg United in October 2020 and has been a key figure for the club, appearing in 42 matches across all competitions, conceding 28 goals, and keeping 21 clean sheets.

Ofori, who is a former Wa All-Stars shot-stopper and Ghana Premier League winner, is expected to cut Ghana’s squad for the 2022 World Cup in Qatar later this year.
