South African side Maritzburg United completes the signing of Ghanaian attacker Richard Zumah

South Africa Premier League club Maritzburg United have announced the signing of Ghanaian forward Richard Agbalegah Zumah.

Zumah is joining the South African side following a one season spell at Ivorian side FC San Pedro.

A statement on the club’s website read,

“Richard Zumah is quite unknown here, coming (originally) from Ghana,” said Maritzburg coach Ernst Middendorp.

“He played lately for San Pedro in the Ivory Coast, we followed him and we believe a player with his structure, with his style will fit our idea of playing.

“He’s just coming in, he needs some days, he’s still young and a player with a certain ability to improve and to fit in, in a proper way.

“We really worked on it in the background, not in public, over weeks to bring them in and get them here and we are very happy to have them as part of our squad.”

The 24-year-old has previously played in Iraq for Baghdad SC in 2019 and Karbala’a FC in 2017 respectively.
