Baffour secures work permit in SA

Mamelodi Sundowns have completed the registration of Ghana striker Emmanuel Awuah Baffour.
The club's new signing was issued a work permit on Wednesday after he was registered with the Premier Soccer League.
Baffour is now eligible for selection for the second leg of their MTN8 semi-final against Moroka Swallows on Sunday at Dobsonville Stadium.
His return is a big relief for coach Johan Neeskens who had Edward Manqele as the only centre-forward.
"I will not be signing any other players, I think this is the squad that we have and I am happy with it. The good thing is that Emmanuel Baffour was registered today so he will be available for Sunday," Neeskens said.
The former New Edubiase player scored one goal in pre-season for the Brazilians.
Baffour was the 2012 Ghana Premier League top scorer with 21 goals.
