Obodai to join Pittsburgh Riverhounds

Ghana’s Anthony Obodai will be switching club next year to join Pittsburgh Riverhounds also in the American USL PRO league.

Goal Ghana can exclusively reveal that talks between his current club Phoenix FC and the Hounds have been completed for the former Ghana Under-17 kingpin to switch camp.

Obodai spent most of his professional years in Holland at Ajax, RKC Waalwijk, and Sparta Rotterdam. He was very influential as a defensive midfield destroyer.
