We need around six players, two fullbacks, one center back, one winger, and two strikers. After we strengthen these departments we will be good to go. We have already identified players to bring on board and we are currently negotiating,” he added.Odhiambo replaced compatriot Francis Baraza in May this year as Biashara United head coach. Baraza decided to ditch United for another TPL side, Kagera Sugar and by the time he was leaving, the team was in the fourth position and Odhiambo did well to ensure the team did not slip down in the log.##EDITORS_CHOICE##
