As reported by Phakaaathi earlier, Darpoh has agreed to a three-year-deal which will be effective starting from the start of next season.
Isolezwe now reports that the reason why Usuthu offered the Ghanaian midfielder a deal to break off the interest from Europe.
Usuthu Team manager Qedusizi Dlamini could not confirm the reported interest from Spain in the defender.
“Let’s us not focus on the interest in him from overseas, he has got a new contract because of what he has done for the team this season,” Dlamini told Isolezwe.
“He has improved and works hard. Even if that is true (the interest from Espanyol). We are working on renewing his contract with the club.”
