Ugandan midfielder Chris Pius Akena says he wants to leave a legacy at Gor Mahia just like his compatriots who have previously featured for the 21-time Football Kenya Federation Premier League (FKFPL) champions.K’Ogalo has been home to several Ugandans who have achieved remarkable success with the team.Last season Kitara FC goal poacher Patrick Kaddu was the latest player from the country to feature for Gor as he helped them clinch a record-extending 21st league title.##NAJAVA_MECA_8445323##However, two midfielders undoubtedly stand head and shoulders above Ugandan exports to the Green Army having dominated the league in recent yearsBaba Rahman Kizito and Khalid Aucho command a massive following and respect among Gor Mahia supporters for the exemplary service they rendered during their time at the club.Akena, who joined K’Ogalo from Greek side Apollo Pontou in the off-season transfer window, wants to follow in their footsteps by winning titles and leaving the team with heads high.##NAJAVA_MECA_8424471##”The two clearly left a mark at the club going by the feedback I have been getting. I like Kizito most as he has been in the game for a long time. Enosh Ochieng explains reason behind his barren run at UlinziHe achieved a lot at Gor and the national team, something I yearn for. He is still going strong in the Vietnamese league and all these can be traced to the foundation he laid at Gor,” said Akena.Meanwhile, Akena, who was heavily criticised in Uganda for choosing Gor instead of staying in Europe or moving to Asia, says Gor’s exposure will help him reclaim his place in the Uganda national team.Before his move to Gor, Akena had managed two caps against Gabon and Mauritania during coach Milutin Sredojevic’s tenure.”I wish to return to the national team and cement my place in the midfield. I am sure the national team head coach keeps a close eye on players in foreign leagues for consideration,” added Akena in an interview with the Sports boom.AFC Leopards announce exit of acting CEOAkena further praised the Kenyan league’s visibility noting that it is easy to be scouted while turning out for a club in the country.“The Kenyan league is always monitored by scouts and coaches. Gor matches are well covered meaning that it is easier to progress to the next level if I perform well,” he added
