How Ken Kenyatta plans to reduce Gor Mahia to ordinary level
The retired Harambee Stars goalkeeper is aiming to transform Abana Abeingo amidst Gor Mahia's league dominance.
Odhiambo missed the CECAFA Kagame Cup as he waited to finalise a transfer to Belgium but the move did not materialise as he had hoped.
Gor Manhia coach Leonardo Neiva will have an opportunity to test some of his new players as defender Alphonce Omija, midfielders Chris Akena and Enock Morison as well as forwards Samuel Kapen and Gedeon Bendeka, who joined the club last month, were part of the travelling squad.
K’Ogalo were set to face Kenya Police in the Charity Shield this weekend but the match was postponed due to unavailability of a venue and they have used the opportunity to travel to Tanzania for the friendly.
Neiva’s men did not impress in the Kagame Cup where they lost two and drew one match to exit at the group stage in what was a wakeup call before the CAF Champions League begins this month.
Gor will take on South Sudan side Al Merreikh Juba in the first preliminary round of the Champions League on August 18 and need proper preparations if they have to advance to the next round where defending champions and Egyptian giants Al Ahly await.
