Former Ghana international Sulley Muntari would succeed in the South African Premier Soccer League (PSL).

This is according to his former Ghana teammate Fatau Dauda, who played for Orlando Pirates and Chippa in South Africa.

Muntari is currently a free agent after parting ways with Spanish club Albacete at the end of the 2018/19 season.

Dauda backed Muntari with the 36-year-old midfielder having been linked with PSL clubs Maritzburg United and Kaizer Chiefs.

“For some time now I have been training with Sulley and he is a guy who is still passionate about football,” Dauda told Citi Sports.

“He has been following the South African league while he was in Italy.”

Dauda, who is a goalkeeper by trade, played with Muntari for Ghana at the 2014 World Cup finals in Brazil.

“He has good knowledge of the game there. He is a big boy and I am convinced that he can make it there,” he added.

“He loves football they play there so he won’t have problems.”

Muntari, who has played 84 international games for Ghana and netted 20 goals, has also been linked Ghanaian giants Asante Kotoko and Hearts of Oak.
