FKF Premier League champions Gor Mahia are actively seeking an experienced goalkeeper to strengthen their squad, citing a gap in the goalkeeping department.Club CEO Raymond Oruo confirmed the club’s pursuit of a new shotstopper, either local or international, which will lead to some goalkeepers being offloaded.”We are looking for a goalkeeper, either locally or from another country. Once we get one, we shall offload some from our squad,” Oruo told Citizen Digital.##NAJAVA_MECA_8692989##Gor Mahia currently has three goalkeepers: Kevin Omondi, Gad Mathew, Caleb Otieno, and Dolph Owino, who has since been released.Since Omondi arrived from Sofapaka last season, he has been the preferred first-choice keeper, with Mathew or Otieno deputizing.”We have noticed a gap between the posts, and since we have crucial assignments ahead, goalkeeping is one of our priorities in this transfer window,” Oruo added.Health issues force former AFC Leopards, Gor Mahia forward to retire at 30Matthew was sidelined for most of last season due to minor surgery. Even after recovering, Omondi remained the first choice, limiting Matthew’s game time.Sources indicate that Gor Mahia is negotiating with a Cameroonian goalkeeper, although no deal has been finalized.However, a section of the technical bench reportedly opposes the move, despite ongoing discussions.Meanwhile, fourth-choice goalkeeper Owino barely featured under Jonathan McKinstry, Leonardo Neiva, or current head coach Zedekiah Otieno, which led to his offloading early this week.Gor Mahia has also confirmed talks with Ugandan strikers Charles Bbaale and Dennis Njire, who are set to return after a stint with Zambian giants Zanaco.Imbenzi assures AFC Leopards fans of exciting second leg and silverware pushAdditionally, Benson Omalla, who recently terminated his contract with Libyan club Al Safa Sporting, remains in the club’s plans.##NAJAVA_MECA_8692989##In a past interview, team manager Victor Nyaoro insisted that the technical bench will maintain its selection strategy.”Kevin is always preferred because of his form. The rest are equally good, but no coach changes a winning team,” said Nyaoro.Last season, Bandari was rumoured to be in talks with Gad Mathew, but Gor Mahia dismissed the claims, reaffirming their commitment to the keeper.
