AshantiGold Chief Executive Kudjo Fianoo has arrived in South Africa to finalize transfer moves for Fatawu Dauda and Yakubu Mohammed to Orlando Pirates.

Fianoo touched down in Johannesburg on Wednesday morning and will be holding talks with officials of Pirates later in the afternoon.

Pirates have been in advanced talks for Duada who is currently Ghana’s first choice goalkeeper.

They are however looking to seal another deal for Yakubu following consistent displays in two consecutive seasons in the Ghanaian top flight.

Duada is in South Africa on national team duty and could sign for Pirates by the time the Black Stars complete their camping this Friday ahead of their 2014 World Cup qualifier against Lesotho on Sunday.

Mohammed on the other hand will be flown in to South Africa upon the completion of the Ghana Premier League to hold his medical and sign if a deal is struck with the chief executive.
