Ghana defender Daniel Opare seals Zulte Waregem transfer

Belgium side Zulte Waregem have captured Ghana defender Daniel Opare on a two-year contract.

The former Ghana youth star sealed the move days after completing his term with fellow Jupilar Pro League side Royal Antwerp.

Opare, 29, joined Antwerp in 2018 making 23 appearances for the Club.

He is no stranger to the Belgian top-flight having served time with Standard Liege.

“I played against Zulte Waregem a few times and it is a strong team with a lot of ambition. In addition, the great support from the supporters is added. I can’t wait to start the season!” Daniel Opare tells Essevee TV.

“Due to the corona crisis, the transfer summer starts later than usual. We are happy to make our first move in early June, ”says CEO Eddy Cordier. “It was no secret that we were looking for a right and left rear. With the arrival of Daniel, we have already been able to fill one of those positions perfectly. ”

With the Belgian Pro League cancelled, the former Ghana U20 defender would have to wait for next season before enjoying competitive football for his new Club.
