Nigerian defender Olisa Ndah has joined South African club Stellenbosch on a free transfer after leaving Orlando Pirates last month, SportPremi reports.
The 28-year-old ended his four-and-a-half year stay at the Buccaneers during the winter transfer window, leaving the club after struggling for regular playing minutes.
The Super Eagles defender was previously a key part of the squad after joining the club in 2021, but a series of injuries and inconsistencies saw him lose his place in the lineup.
He has now joined another Premier Soccer League club Stellenbosch, where he will be hoping to gain regular minutes and earn a recall to represent the Nigerian national team.
Ndah becomes the fourth Nigerian player to play for the club after the likes of Ibraheem Jabaar, Kazie Enyinnaya and Stanley Dimgba and will wear the number 99 jersey.

In a statement released by the club’s Chief Executive Officer, Stellenbosch announced the arrival of rhe Nigerian defender.
“Olisa is a player with proven quality and experience at the highest level, and we are pleased to welcome him to Stellenbosch FC”, the club’s CEO revealed.
“We are deliberate in our recruitment strategy to ensure that every signing complements the group, and having had the chance to assess him closely, we are confident he will be a valuable addition to our squad.”
Stellenbosch are currently 13th on the PSL standings and will now face Magesi FC in a league clash on Wednesday evening, where Ndah could make his debut for the club.
They will also face Golden Arrows in the Nedbank Cup Round of 16 on Saturday.
