Frank Odhiambo has left for Djugarden FC of Sweden
It is now the next recruitment in Djurgården's investment ahead of the Allsvenskan 2022.

Despite great competition from, among others, France, he chose the Stockholm club in the end:

- My dream is to come to Sweden and adapt to the level as soon as possible, says the 19-year-old on the website.

Djurgården is not on the lazy side before the Allsvenskan 2022.

Now Bosse Andersson strengthens the midfield set-up with the Kenyan midfielder Frank Odhiambo.

The contract is written for five years for the 19-year-old.

He comes most recently from games in Gor Mahia, where Michael Olunga, among other things, played). Odhiambo has also represented Kenya's U20 and U23 national teams. In October 2021, the debut in the men's national team for the midfielder was also made.

In the club team, he has also played in the CAF Confederation Cup (African Champions League), despite his young age.

He says on Djurgården's website that Michael Olunga was an important part of the decision to sign for the blue stripes:

Odhiambo had offers from teams in France, Belgium and Lithuania, among others, but I chose Sweden and Djurgården in the end.

He is eager to start working with the team in the future:

- I'm hungry and want to show what I can do. I like to work hard and look forward to fighting for a place on the team. Then cohesion is important to me and I always play for the team's best. I usually have it easy for me socially so I will hopefully get into the team quickly, get to know everyone properly and then contribute out on the field. I also try to be a leader and help my teammates on the field.

However, it will be a while before he can start the preparations with the team, due to the fact that he has to settle with a visa.

Furthermore, he is fully ready to try to take a place in the starting eleven:

- My dream is to come to Sweden and adapt to the level as soon as possible. I know that I will come to a good environment and will continue the hard work that has taken me to where I am now. In the long run, I will try to take a place in the starting eleven and contribute to both my own development and success for Djurgården - this is my goal right now. I want to develop with Djurgården as a platform and then maybe even bigger challenges await later, sums up Frank who hopes to be on site at Kaknäs as soon as the administrative pieces are ready.

Bosse Andersson describes Odhiambo as a player with weight among other things:

- Frank is physically strong and wants to participate offensively in the build-up game, he is not afraid to move forward on the field. In addition, he has shown that he is dangerous in the opponents' penalty area with a strong main game so it will be interesting to follow his progress.

Gor Mahia are said to have signed Yusuf Mainge from AFC
The 21-year-old has ditched the Den and reports have already linked him with a transfer to former champions K’Ogalo
AFC Leopards defender Yusuf Mainge has confirmed his exit from the FKF Premier League side with reports linking the player with a move to rivals Gor Mahia.

The 21-year-old right-back has revealed his exit from the Den in a message on his social media pages by stating: “It’s time to say goodbye to AFC Leopards. I don’t know where to begin but I leave this club as a proper player having joined as a young boy from secondary school.

What did Mainge say?
“AFC Leopards gave me the first real chance of proper football where I had a taste of continental football and worked with some of the best coaches and players. We might have not achieved everything we wanted but enjoyed every bit of my stay there.

Goal now understands Ingwe's rivals Gor Mahia have already approached the player for his services and negotiations are currently going on.

A top K’Ogalo official, who did not want to be named, could not confirm nor deny the rumours but told Goal: “We are still in the market for quality players and if Mainge is one of them, then we are interested, I don’t have any further information about him.

As someone had candidly put it " gima Zico Ochamo ok olal." Zico has assembled a historical squad with massive fire. With finance at his disposal is this the year for our bro Zico to rise to the occasion?
Back home, are we just having numbers but impotent?
Faraj time will indeed tell.

Farah the question is " can the EC and the TB really asemble a squad with inbuilt fire power and brilliance equal to lens Julian's of the 80s?"
If the club gets a coach who knows how to develop players like Len Julians did back then.

From Citizen Sports
FIFA lifts transfer ban on Gor Mahia

The global football governing body FIFA has cleared Gor Mahia of the transfer ban it had imposed on them for failing to pay its former players their dues upon the termination of their contracts.

In a letter addressed to the club, FIFA noted that the complainants had received their payments from the club hence the proceedings were closed and the ban lifted.

“We take note from the mentioned correspondence that the creditor has received the amounts due by the respondent, the club, Gor Mahia FC, in accordance with the decision passed by FIFA (in accordance with Article 13 rules governing procedures of players’ status committee and the Dispute Resolution Chamber).

‘’As a consequence, we inform you that the present proceedings are closed and hence the transfer ban imposed has been lifted’’, added part of the letter,” part of the letter reads.

Last week, the club’s sporting director Lordvic Aduda had indicated that they were writing to FIFA after clearing Tanzanian winger Dickson Ambundo and Ugandan defender Shafique Batambuze.

Aduda had indicated that they had already identified potential players to beef their squad and were only waiting for a nod from FIFA.

Also in the list of complainants was the former tactician Steven Pollack who has also been cleared by the club. Among the potential Gor recruits is a Malian International shot-stopper Adama Keita who is reportedly already training with the club.

Long-serving goalkeeper Boniface Oluoch is still ineligible to play at the CAF Confederations Cup following a 4 match ban by CAF alongside a Ksh. 1.5 million fine imposed on him over the chaos that erupted in Zambia against NAPSA Stars early this year.

With three players having left, and with the goal drought witnessed last season, Gor will need to do much more on the attack as well as the defence ahead of their continental campaign.

In an earlier interview, assistant coach Sammy Omollo ‘Pamzo’ had hinted at poaching for lethal strikers saying despite having foreign goal poachers in the squad, Gor did not impress in their last League campaign.

‘’We will need more strikers and defenders. Our main undoing last season was the striking force. We did not score many goals as we expected,’’ said ‘Pamzo’.

The absence of Charles Momanyi who decamped to Tusker on mutual consent and Geoffrey Ochieng’s injury will call for a serious need of more defenders. Ugandan Fred Nkata remains the only left-back following the injury of regular starter Geoffrey Ochieng’.

The midfield will also need a beef-up after Kenyan international Kenneth Muguna left for Tanzania’s Azam at the end of last season. This is after the return of Francis Kahata to Gor hit a snag after K’Ogalo failed to meet his sign-on demand.

Club sporting director said they were unable to absorb Kahata due to the club’s week financial muscle

Story from goal.com
The 27-year-old Burkinabe midfielder played his last game for K’Ogalo in the 2-0 defeat against the Sugar Millers

Gor Mahia's exodus continued on Monday after midfielder Abdul Karim Nikiema confirmed his exit after only six months at the club.

The 27-year-old who joined K’Ogalo from Gandzasar Kapan FC of Armenia on a two-year deal on February 2, 2021, bid farewell to the players and the team’s technical bench after their final game of the season Sunday.

During the match, Gor Mahia suffered a 2-0 defeat against Nzoia Sugar to finish the season with a defeat and it was the first time in four years they had failed to win the FKF Premier League which was won by Tusker.

A top source within the club has exclusively told Goal the Burkinabe player will not return to see through his remaining contract.
What did the source say?

“Karim [Nikiema] played his last match for Gor Mahia against Nzoia Sugar,” the source, who did not want to be named, told Goal on Monday. “He has bid the team farewell after the game and he will not come back.

“Like many players at the club, he is concerned that salaries are not being paid and so he wants to move on and get a team elsewhere, he doesn’t have a team at the moment, but he will seek to get one.

“It was the reason he captained the team against Nzoia, despite captain Harun Shakava playing in the game, the team wanted to give him a good send off and it is done, he will not return to play for Gor Mahia.”

Karim Abdul Nikiema of Gor Mahia.

On Sunday, Gor Mahia missed the services of their key strikers Tito Okelo and Jules Ulimwengu forcing new coach Mark Harrison to rely on inexperienced players for their final home game.

Speaking to Goal after Sunday's game, Harrison admitted they were beaten because they did not have their regular players in the squad.

“Tito [Okello] and Ulimwengu both disappeared from training and I have not seen them, they are all asking for money, they have not been paid and I cannot force them to come and play,” Harrison told Goal.

“It is unfortunate we find ourselves in such a situation but there is nothing we can do, we have to use the players available and move on.”
What did Okello say before?

In a recent interview, Okello openly claimed he will not stay at the club next season if they don’t pay him his accrued salary.

The towering South Sudanese forward confirmed he was owed a lot of money by the outgoing FKF Premier League champions and he will not see through his contract at the club “if they don’t pay me.”

“I’m fed up with the situation I’m in. The club owes me a lot of money and if they don’t pay me, I’m going to Uganda after our last game and won't come back again. They should just give my release letter when the season is done,’’ Okello said.

“It is a huge amount of money and I know they can’t pay it all. I’m frustrated in a foreign land. I'm waiting for the league to end so that I can go back home and look for another option.”

Apart from Okello, other players who have indicated they will not stay at K’Ogalo include defender Charles Momanyi and midfielder Clifton Miheso.

Gor Mahia have already made one signing so far this transfer window – 31-year-old goalkeeper Adama Keita - who joined from CI Kamsar of Guinea on a two-year contract.
