After impressing in the second half of the season with relegation battling Vihiga United, youngster Stewart Omondi had attracted interest from FKF Premier League who are planning to swoop for the young midfielder when the FKF Premier League transfer window swings open in a week’s time. Omondi has caught the eye on many with consistent performances since he made his debut against Gor Mahia on 27th May in Mumias, a match that his side lost 1-0, he has been a constant figure in coach Mike Mururi’s side since his bow. He has grown from strength to strength chipping in with three goals and several man of the match performances and now the FKF PL big boys want him. Ulinzi Stars, Kakamega Homeboyz and KCB are among clubs interested in the workaholic box to box midfielder. Although no club has made a formal approach to the club, Vihiga assistant coach Samuel Twago admits the player has several offers on the table. “No team has approached us directly but the player has informed us that some coaches have been calling him with the promise of signing him at the end of the season and so until they reach us I can’t say that there are any concrete offers for him yet,” he told Mozzart Sport.🥇 MAN OF THE MATCH 🥇Stewart Omondi with another stunning performance to boost Vihiga United’s chances of surviving the chop this season #FKFPL pic.twitter.com/MoqBEYdIyd— FKF Premier League (@Officialfkfpl) August 13, 2021 Twago went on to praise the youngster and he believes that he can only get better. “Stewart is a good young player, he works very hard and is keen to learn.
