Levin Odhiambo transfer stalemate and his tough options

Tusker FC’s left-back, Levin “Leftie” Odhiambo, is a prime transfer target for fellow FKF Premier League giants Gor Mahia.He is among a list of players that the record 20-time Kenyan champions have their eyes set on and intend to sign by at least July of this season.##NAJAVA_MECA_7838781##The former Mathare United player was set to join K’Ogalo during this January window, but this endeavor has been thwarted by the Brewers, who are holding onto the highly rated player.With just three months left on his contract, Levin has reportedly made it known that he wants to leave and has promised to obtain a release letter from the Ruaraka-based side. Yet, in their last communication, Tusker FC demanded a Ksh 3 million transfer fee from Gor Mahia.”For a player with less than three months left on his contract and considering his current salary, that would be insane,” an official of Gor Mahia told Mozzart Sport anonymously.”He’s a good player, one we would like to have as part of our squad; he has also indicated that he wants to join us. We are asking him not to renew his contract with Tusker if he truly wants to come over,” the source added.Levin will have a tough choice to make as Gor Mahia is avoiding the path of handing him a pre-contract, which would amount to player tapping.Player tapping in sports is an attempt to persuade a player contracted to one team to transfer to another team without the knowledge or permission of the player’s current team.His best option is to move on a Bosman transfer at the expiry of his contract on the midnight of March 31st; however, this would mean he will be out of active football until the next transfer window in June. “It’s a big sacrifice, but he will only be out for a few months. I hope an amicable solution will be found.”According to the Bosman ruling, players can move to a new club at the end of their contract without their old club receiving a fee.Gor Mahia has already signed three players, namely Shariff Juma from Bidco United, Enock Wanyama from Taiwan, and Shaban Juma from Green Commandos.Hope Diana Ligami Wins Proton Saga in Mozzart Bet’s Aviator Promotion
