Stellenbosch FC unveil former Orlando Pirates star defender

Stellenbosch FC have officially announced the signing of former Orlando Pirates star defender Olisa Ndah.

Ndah recently parted ways with Pirates due to his continued lack of game time under coach Abdeslam Ouaddou.

And he immediately flew to the Western Cape to try his luck with Stellies who have also had a coaching change.

Now, the Stellies technical team led by Gavin Hunt, appears to have been impressed by the Nigeria international.

According to local reports, the 28-year-old centre-back has penned an 18-month long contract with Stellies.
