Record Kenyan champions Gor Mahia have made a bold move in the mid-season transfer window by signing six new players to uplift their squad.
With three local talents and three skilled expatriates joining the ranks, the team is poised for success, while five players have moved on to new opportunities.
Among the foreign signings is Congolese goalkeeper Giscard Mavoungou, who arrives from AS Otoho of Congo Brazzaville, ready to face the challenge as he competes with Gad Mathews and Kevin Omondi for a spot in goal.
The Cameroonian winger Patrick Essombe Ekandjoum, hailing from Sportive De Douala in Cameroon, brings invaluable experience from his time with AS Kigali in Rwanda. He made a promising debut in a Mozzart Bet Cup Round of 64 match against KSG Ogopa last week, showcasing the spirit of resilience that will help him thrive.
The future shines bright with Ugandan striker Charles Bbaale, who joins as a free agent from Rayon Sports in Rwanda. Although he is still seeking his first goal, his determination and potential to contribute are what drive the team’s ambitions.
On the local front, Kevin Monyi, a right-back from Kisumu All-Stars in the National Super League (NSL), steps in to fill the gap left by Ronney Onyango, who is pursuing his own dreams in Denmark.
Midfielder Ben Stanley Omondi joins from Kakamega Homeboyz, ready to fight for a place in the attacking midfield. Emerging talent Sydney Ogutu, recognized as one of the brightest young prospects, comes from Kibera United, bringing fresh energy and hope to the squad.
With the signing of Benson Omalla pending the finalization of his International Transfer Certificate (ITC), along with that of an unnamed defender, the team is on the brink of transformation.
As five players depart, including midfielders Kevin Juma, Musa Masika, Enock Wanyama, and Sydney Ochieng, along with young goalkeeper Dolph Owino, they embrace their next chapters. Juma has joined Nairobi City Stars, Masika is set for Mathare United, and Owino finds his path with Murang’a Seal.
Gor Mahia stands unified and ready to chase new victories, fueled by passion, commitment, and the promise of greatness ahead.
