Edwin Gyimah set to complete Orlando Pirates move

Ghana midfielder Edwin Gyimah is set to complete his move to South African side Orlando Pirates after training with the giants on Friday evening, GHANAsoccernet.com can reveal.

The 24-year-old was given the permission by his club SuperSport United to hold talks with the Buccaneers on Thursday over his personal discuss personal terms.

Now the former Wa All Stars ace looks to be edging closer to sealing the move after training with the club on Friday.

This is a firm indication that the move is all but sealed with a media announcement expected in the coming hours.

Gyimah even took a picture of himself in an Orlando Pirates shirt later in the night while resting in the team’s hotel room after training earlier in the day.

The midfielder was surprisingly spent last season out on loan to Mpumalanga Black Aces after falling out of favour at SuperSport United despite being a key player for the club.

Gyimah put in a number of fine performances for AmaZayoni, and while they were keen to make his move a permanent one, it looks like they have been pipped to the post.
