Ex-Gor Mahia tactician wants to dine with the big boys of Tanzanian football

Former Gor Mahia assistant coach Patrick Odhiambo has set a top four finish as his irreducible minimum at his new work station, Tanzania Prisons. Odhiambo who crossed the border seven months ditched the financially struggling Biashara United for Prisons last week and will be attached to the latter until the end of the season. With Prisons placing eleventh on the log with a similar number of points, six off the top four bracket, Odhiambo believes that he his the right man to fire the club to the top four and proceed to the CAF Confederation Cup. Kenyan coach Patrick Odhiambo has switched clubs in Tanzania.He has left Biashara United for Tanzania Prisons FC. He is likely to be joined by his assistant Marwa Chamberi at the club.#KenyansAbroad pic.twitter.com/3vrUT5epSU— Ole Teya (@Kevin_teya) January 7, 2022 The soft spoken tactician made history by guiding Biashara to the continental stage for the first time in history last season but they exited at the preliminary round for failing to travel for an away match to Al Ahly of Libya. Although the former Sony Sugar tactician inherited the team from his compatriot Francis Baraza when they had cemented a place in the top four, he held on until the final round of the season to book a place in CAF matches. “I want to help this team finish inside the top four. I am glad I took over when there is time to turn around things and fight for the targets that I have set for the players. Even though I did not have the opportunity to beef the squad as the window is set to close on Saturday, I am sure we will achieve our goals,” he said. Big up Luwowohttps://t.co/kgDsLYKqee— Mozzart Sport Kenya (@MozzartSportKe) January 7, 2022 Odhiambo who revealed plans of returning home at the end of the season said he left Biashara to fulfill his desire of a new challenge.The former Chemelil Sugar who is likely to be joined by Marwa Chamberi as his assistant joined Biashara last year after resigning at Kakamega Homeboyz where he served as Nicholas Muyoti’s assistant. “Tanzanian football is on upward trajectory and all I wanted was to experience some change.
