Departing Kakamega Homeboyz goalkeeping coach John Waw says his desire for a new challenge led him to part ways with the 2023 Mozzart Bet Cup champions.Waw announced the decision on Tuesday evening through his Facebook page, ending a union that lasted for more than a year.He joined the Abana Ba Ingo in February 2023 from Tanzania Mainland Premier League side Biashara United.##NAJAVA_MECA_8216391##He was appointed as a trainer following the sacking of David Juma, who was not spared when the axe fell on a number of technical officials, including the then-head coach John Baraza.The former Mathare United, Kakamega Homeboyz, Chemelil Sugar, and Sony Sugar custodian was brought on board by the outgoing Homeboyz gaffer Patrick Odhiambo.He says after the end of his contract, he chose not to renew it since he wanted to test the waters elsewhere to enrich his six-year career curriculum vitae.”When my contract expired, I thought it was high time to take up a new challenge,” said Waw.Harambee Stars defender on the verge of completing move to Swedish top-flight sideDuring his stay at the club, he managed to sharpen and get the best out of Ibrahim Wanzala, Farouk Shikalo, James Ssetebo, and Simon Masaka.He won two trophies with the Mozzart Bet-powered team: the domestic cup and the Lidonde Cup.Waw, who has had stints at Soy United and Sofapaka, expressed gratitude to the board for giving him the opportunity to bag his first career title.”I will always cherish my time at Kakamega Homeboyz. It is a place where I won my first career trophy ten years after failing to achieve it as a player. It has enriched my profile and taught me valuable lessons,” he told Mozzart Sport.Commenting on his future, the former Sony netminder promised a big announcement next week as he takes time to evaluate the numerous offers on his table.”I will go back to management soon. I have received a lot of offers and will evaluate them before making a decision.
