Ojunga disappointed with individual performance, eyes more in the new season

Posta Rangers midfielder Geoffrey Ojunga has expressed disappointment after failing to meet his goals for the 2023-2024 Football Kenya Federation Premier League season, which concludes this weekend.Ojunga faced stiff competition for playing time from other central midfielders at the club, reducing him to an impact player this season. This limited game time and lack of goal involvement were contrary to the plans he had set before the campaign kicked off last year, leading to his honest reflection on the term. Jackson Macharia’s experience shapes future stars at Posta RangersThough Posta Rangers had a strong first leg, competing closely with Gor Mahia in the title race, Ojunga feels his individual contribution fell far below his potential. His disappointment is compounded by the fact that his peers secured call-ups to the U23 team for the upcoming COSAFA tournament.Coach Ken Odhiambo, who Ojunga worked under at Sofapaka, named the provisional squad on Tuesday and is expected to trim it later for the tournament.”I feel I could have done better this season. I had hopes of regular game time, but that was not the case. It has been a disappointing season on a personal level. If all had gone in line with my plan, I would be in the national team. I believe so,” Ojunga revealed to Mozzart Sport. ##NAJAVA_MECA_8173438##Admitting that he fell short this season, the former Western Stima midfielder is now focused on making amends in the new term. Before his move from Stima to Sofapaka, Ojunga was heavily linked with a transfer to record champions Gor Mahia, but the move fell through due to a player transfer ban Gor was battling at the time.Coach John Baraza praises young talent William Gitama ahead of COSAFA CupOjunga has a solid plan for the new season, aiming to regain his best form and attract offers from foreign clubs. “I would have loved to win at least a title this season, catch the attention of foreign teams, or even be on the national team. However, I believe next season will be better, and I will regain my best,” he added.Despite impressive performances at Sofapaka, Ojunga has struggled to break into the first team at Posta Rangers since joining the club last year. He is determined to turn things around and achieve his goals in the upcoming season.
