Maritzburg sign attacking duo to bolster squad

Maritzburg United have confirmed the arrival of two new players with the capture of Ghanaian striker Richard Zumah and winger Brandon Theron.

The well-travelled Zumah has played in his homeland and Iraq, but was most recently with Ivorian side FC San Pedro. The 24-year-old is an out-and-out centre-forward.

Theron played for Marumo Gallants last season after arriving at the start of the campaign from second-tier Cape United, but does also have previous top-flight experience with Highlands Park during their first season in the DStv Premiership in the 2016-17 campaign.

The 28-year-old had over 200 professional appearances, though most have been in the GladAfrica Championship.

He did make 17 appearances with Gallants last season, scoring a solitary goal.
