Orlando Pirates Open Talks for Asante Kotoko Goalkeeper Mohammed Camara

South African giants Orlando Pirates have shown concrete interest in signing Asante Kotoko goalkeeper Mohammed Camara, with moves already underway ahead of the new season.

Sources indicate that the Buccaneers have opened discussions with Camara’s representatives, Pro Sport, as they explore the possibility of bringing the shot-stopper to the Premier Soccer League. The talks are understood to be at an early stage but signal serious intent from the Soweto-based club.

Camara is out of contract at the end of the current season, meaning he could be available on a free transfer—an option that makes the deal financially attractive for Orlando Pirates as they look to strengthen their goalkeeping department.

The goalkeeper has been a consistent presence in Kotoko’s squad and is admired for his composure, reflexes, and experience at top-flight level. His potential departure would mark a significant change for the Porcupine Warriors, who may be forced to plan for life after the season.

While no agreement has been reached yet, developments in the coming weeks could determine whether Camara makes the switch to South Africa or extends his stay in Kumasi.
