Sylvester Owino could be back on the pitch sooner than expected after the defender was spotted in light training with the team, offering a timely boost to Gor Mahia.
The experienced centre-back has been sidelined since sustaining an injury during a league clash against Ulinzi Stars on March 15 at the Ulinzi Complex. Initial reports indicated that Owino had suffered a muscle tear, ruling him out for approximately two months, a setback that dealt a significant blow to the club’s defensive setup at a crucial stage of the season.
However, just one month into his recovery, the resilient defender appears to be making encouraging progress. Owino has since resumed light training with the squad, signaling his determination to fast-track his return to full fitness.
The club’s official social media channels fueled excitement among fans with a cryptic but optimistic update:
- “🇰🇪|🟢 Good News 👍
- Guess who’s back
- Believe in this team 👊”
The post was accompanied by an image of Owino participating in a light training session at Wang’uru Stadium, where Gor Mahia are set to face Tusker FC this Tuesday.
While it remains unclear whether he will be fit enough to feature in the upcoming clash, his return to training is undoubtedly a major morale boost for K’Ogalo.
Fans will be hoping the dependable defender completes his recovery soon and returns stronger as the team pushes through a decisive phase of the campaign.
K’Ogalo faithful will certainly be wishing him a strong and speedy recovery.
