Gor Mahia transfer news 24-October-2018
Club official Ronald Ngala told goal.com that the club is busy searching for a proven striker.
“Yes, it is true that we are in the market for a striker, we want to sharpen our attacking department and ensure that we get more goals in the coming season. We are going to take part in several competitions and will need a proven goal scorer to help us in attack.” he said.
Gor Mahia currently has three foreigners in the attack: Tuyisenge, Mustafa and the Ivorian Ephrem Guikan. Some rumours suggested that the club was pursuing Allan Wanga. Back in 2014, Gor Mahia did make Wanga an offer.
Ngala continued to say that some players might be released to pursue other opportunities.
“Definitely when we bring in players we will release some, but that does not mean we are selling them. We will find clubs for them to go on loan to ensure they get playing time,”
The duo of Innocent Wafula and Karim Nizigyimana are in the process of renewing their deals at Gor Mahia
“We have been in talks with Karim and Wafula but they haven’t signed their contracts yet. Once we are back everything will be completed. Their current contracts expire in January 2019 and so there’s nothing to worry about,” said CEO Omondi Aduda to futaa.com.
Karim missed most of last season with a torn achilles tendon. The speedy Wafula was very useful on the flanks when called upon. He can either play as a fullback or as a winger.
Newly signed Ugandan midfielder Shafiq Batambuze is looking forward to an opportunity to play for Kogalo.
“I’m glad to be part of the Gor Mahia family and I am ready to perform at my best, I want to take my career to another level through Gor,” Batambuze told Nation Sport.
Batambuze also spoke of his accomplishments in Tanzania
Tanzania has been good to me, I have been loved and supported and won individual awards. I took player of the month award and Mapinduzi Cup MVP (Most Valuable Player),” he added.
What exactly is the transfer news here?
Francis Kahata, the person who can read and change the direction of Gor Mahia attacking formation. A man with the gift of pinpoint passes, dribbling power with short and long killer passes. ON One on One situation with the goalkeeper, Francis was a sure bet. Dangerous on dead ball situation, good on-ball situation and off the ball situation. One of the very few players in Kenya who can run and think with the ball. Nobody in 2018 KPL could challenge Kahata in the midfield duel. He was the creme de la creme and the engine of Coach Kerr attacking formation in Gor Mahia.
Nothing new about the transfers posted above,that’s a second hand information posted three days ago in futaa.com.
hehehehehh
Surely Admin, what have you posted here?
Next season Kerr should rethink, actually stop. his rotation policy which is detrimental to the careers of hardworking or talented players. While Kerr has made the shortlist for the coach of the year award, Kahata and Jausenge have missed out.
Because of rotation Kahata did’nt play the required 24 games to qualify for the kes1m KPL MVP shortlist and at 15 goals with more games Jausenge may have won the kes0.5m golden boot.Such awards motivate not only the winning players but the whole team.
