Central defender Erick Odhiambo has expressed his desire to make a comeback in the Kenyan football scene when his contract with Somalia Premier League side Badbaado expires in August.The Gor Mahia Youth graduate told Mozzart Sport that he will not renew his stay with the Horn of Africa club but rather prefers a move back to the country with eyes trained on Football Kenya Federation Premier League (FKFPL) and the National Super League (NSL).##NAJAVA_MECA_8103949##Odhiambo, who moved to the league when his career was on an upward trajectory, is among those who bade Kenyan football farewell last year after landing what he termed a lucrative deal in Somalia.“My contract ends in August, and I won’t renew with them,” he assured.The former Ruiru Hotstars defender maintains that he has amassed enough top-flight experience and match fitness to enable him to jostle for any top-tier side in the country.At Gor Youth, Odhiambo was primed for greatness with his hard-tackling nature and passing ability, placing him a notch higher above the rest but an injury in the early days of the career made it tough for the 24-year-old to break into the K’Ogalo senior team.“I have picked a lot from the league in this foreign country, and I believe what I have gained will be essential to any team in the Kenyan league that will settle for my services,” he added.NSL: Luanda Villa firmly in promotion fight, maintains TeraWith his return imminent, Odhiambo has left the doors open to any club that might be interested in his services, stating that he has yet to get a concrete offer.“No offers have come my way, it is just a personal decision to return home, therefore, I am sending this as a come-get-me plea to top-tier clubs.”Meanwhile, Odhiambo, who also plays as a defensive midfielder, opened up in an earlier interview about his move to Somalia, insisting that the offer tabled by the club and the eye-catching infrastructure were too good to turn down.”They gave me a good deal and their pay is always on time. Their league is competitive, contrary to what many believe. What makes it competitive is the fact that each club has six slots filled by foreign players. They can’t bring in a player from a foreign country and give him a bad deal,” Odhiambo said.Ongwae urges Football Kenya Federation to crack whip on rogue match officials
