KCB FC head coach Patrick Odhiambo has cleared the air on whether the club is interested in signing defensive midfielder Tobias Otieno in the mid-season transfer window.Otieno, who has been a free agent since parting ways with US League One side Tormenta FC in December last year, has been training with KCB.His presence in the Bankers camp has elicited talks of whether Odhiambo is keen on reuniting with the midfielder whom he once worked with at the defunct Sony Sugar FC.##NAJAVA_MECA_8405660##Although the soft-spoken tactician says he does not mind acquiring his signature in January next year, he insists that the ball is squarely on Otieno’s court.”He is just training with us, nothing more. He requested for the opportunity to keep fit with us and since he is a player I have worked with, I couldn’t lock the door for him. I can’t tell whether he is willing to sign for us as of yet,” clarified Odhiambo.Posta Rangers custodian eyeing first FKF Premier League match in 24 monthsOdhiambo acknowledged that the former Gor Mahia midfielder is most likely determined to return abroad rather than grace the Kenyan top tier for the second time.”I haven’t discussed anything touching on transfers with him. I know he has unfinished business in foreign leagues but if he chooses to join us well and good,” the former Gor Mahia assistant coach went on.Meanwhile, the former Kakamega Homeboyz gaffer reiterated that it was ‘too early’ to conclude that the club was a clear favourite to clinch the league title.Harambee Stars coach Engin Firat clashes with journalists after Cameroon defeatOdhiambo said the focus was on round five of the competition against Homeboyz rather than the title race. “We can’t allow ourselves to shift our attention from the next league match to the title. It is too early to think about it. We want to win our next game,” he added.KCB have not conceded a goal in the four matches played and consequently, tops the table with ten points.
