TWO INTERNATIONALS TO STAY

Almost every Pirates fan thought it was all over for of the club’s most-important internationals, but the circumstances have changed.

Having virtually disappeared from Jose Riveiro’s Sea Robbers in the second half of last season due to contract negotiations, including ill-timed injuries, the duo of Ndah and Ofori are set to sign new deals.

According to Unplayable, Ndah’s agent, Mike Makaab confirmed the 25-year-old Nigerian central defender is staying.

“Olisa Ndah’s agent Mike Makaab has confirmed that the Nigerian defender is “definitely staying” at the club and has been recovering from an injury,” the report said.
