As much as I know, he is the only african who has ever played here. It turned into a complete farce. He signed a 3-year contract with Maardu Levadia in january 2003, but after couple of months Levadia broke the contract and refused to pay him salary, as they were dissapointed in his skills. It grew into a small scandal, as Ofolete was furious at the club, saying that the coach and rest of the staff were against him from the start, the living conditions offered to him were horrible and he never got the promised salary. He promised to make a protest to FIFA, but I don't know if he really did that.

Hello! Thank you all very much for the help! Just found out Clement Beaud now plays for Academica Coimbra in Portugal! Is there any way I can find out matches/goals per season for the africans mentioned? Please let me know! Greetings from Oivind!
