Calabar turns down Simba move

In the latest twist and turn of the transfer season, dependable defender David Owino “Calabar” has turned down a move to Simba Sports club of Tanzania and stated definitively that he wishes to transfer to Europe. A club official told goal.com that Calabar has his eyes set on a move to Europe.

“He is clearly not keen on the move and has not even asked about it,” revealed our source.

Calabar himself stated that he is not even aware of interest from Simba

“I have personally not seen any invite to attend trials and therefore remain a Gor Mahia player at the moment.”

Secretary general Chris Omondi had indicated that Simba were interested in trying out Calabar. However they were unconvinced and wanted to try him out first. Simba coach Patrick Phiri has been keen to strengthen his rear-guard. It is not clear how Calabar would fit in at Simba given that they already have six foreigners whereas the Tanzanian league allows five. Calabar would been the seventh foreigner.

    Is EC (Secretary General) pawning our players?
    Too much miscommunication over a straightforward issue.
    Even with “Flava” & “Baba” one minute we are “talking” then literally next minute they are gone.
    Why not give wanted players a contract even with a “release clause” na wale hawataki then no salary after expiry of current contract.
    Problem is with CAF cup GM has a shorter period to sort out its transfer matters hope acts with that in mind.

    He knew going to Simba SPORTS CLUB is just like crossing over to other local clubs that needs a second thought to do so. For are further career development a player of his caliber needs a trial in Europe or United States. With the spirit he has shown, let us wish him well in future trial
