The administrators completing the moves of seasoned veterans Clifton Miheso, John Mark Makwatta, Musa Mohammed and Duncan Otieno with Shakava supposed to be complete the attractive pentagon combination.🚨| OfficialNewly promoted FKFPL outfit Kenya Police FC have completed the signing of former Gor Mahia defender Musa Mohammed#MusaMohammed #KenyaPolice #GorMahiahttps://t.co/9OXIEqkaFk— Mozzart Sport Kenya (@MozzartSportKe) October 18, 2021 With Police initially hoping to have completed the signing of the defender by their midweek clash against Nzoia Sugar, those exit rumours appear to have now hit a brick wall after talks between the player and Gor’s top hierarchy came in to prevent the transfer of the team’s only experienced centre back from happening.”Shakava has been frequenting the chairman’s office ever since the Police FC reports surfaced. The coach and the technical bench have also been talking to him on a regular basis. As it looks, it now appears that there has been a turnaround and he’s likely to stay,” a source at Gor Mahia told Mozzart Sport.⚽| The #MashemejiDerby is here.@AFCLeopards take on @OfficialGMFC in Kasarani.Their last league encounter ended in a 0-0 Draw.Who will win it this time round?#FKFPL pic.twitter.com/4TOnNfIV6y— FKF Premier League (@Officialfkfpl) October 19, 2021 Speculation also had it that the Harambee Stars international would miss the team’s midweek Mashemeji Derby clash against bitter rivals AFC Leopards. Those fears were however allayed as the player took part in the team’s final training session ahead of the derby with head coach Mark Harrison confident that his leader of men on the pitch is in the right mentality as he condemned what Police is doing.”His mentality is good. He played well in Egypt and he has been training and training well since we came back from continental duty. He is a Gor player and he is not going anywhere, he knows that. What Police is doing is wrong. They can’t approach players who are under contract. They just need to stay away,” Harrison commented.
