This is a little unusual. Richards Bay FC, who recently received promotion, simultaneously announced the acquisition of two new goalkeepers.
What an exciting time for Richards Bay, a coastal community in KwaZulu Natal. The new PSL team is hard at work building a team to play in South Africa’s top division for the first time ever.
The most recent transfers include Omr Magoola from Uganda and former AmaZulu goalie Neil Boschoff.
“We would like to take this opportunity and confirm the signings of Goalkeeper Neil Boshoff, who was on the books of AmaZulu FC, and Ugandan international Goalkeeper Omar Salim Magoola,” the club announced.
“Welcome to the Natal Rich Boyz Family,” the note added.
