In the interest of having their lead striker get over heartbreak and regain his form, Gor Mahia have been offering counseling to Benson Omala.Omala was left counting losses after a proposed move to Algerian side JS Saoura fell through at the eleventh hour, crashing the dream of what would have been an upgrade in his football career.Both Omala and Gor were to pocket millions of shillings from the six-month-long loan deal had it been completed on time.However, no sooner had Gor sanctioned the move than Saoura pulled out of the deal, citing lethargy by the Kenyan team in having the transfer completed on time.##NAJAVA_MECA_7863325##The Gor management came under heavy criticism after it emerged that the transfer hit a snag and Saoura elected to sign a Cameroonian striker as an alternative.Last week, Omala’a agent blamed Gor for dragging their feet in approving the transfer of the former national U20 striker’s move to greener pastures.The deal is certainly behind the player as the mid-season transfer window has been shut and he further, resumed training and was used in last weekend’s barren draw against Ulinzi Stars.FKFPL: Gor Mahia frustrated for second consecutive weekend as Nairobi City Stars reduce gapGiven that it had a toll on him and probably affected him physiologically, Gor have been doing the needful.

Where were the agents during the whole window time? Two days were not sufficient enough to make a decision of such magnitude,” he fired back.
