Thika United coach John Kamau reveals to Goal.com that striker Kennedy Otieno, who bagged a hat-trick against Karuturi, has landed scholarship to study in USA
Thika United striker Kennedy Otieno will leave the club in July after he landed a scholarship to study in the United States of America (USA).
Otieno scored the first hat-trick of the season when he netted three goals to enable his side stop Karuturi Sports 3-0 in a Kenyan Prenier League (KPL) match at home four weeks ago.
Thika United coach John Kamau confirmed the player has received a sports scholarship at Longwood University in a move that has forced him to look for an able replacement.
“He is scheduled to leave in July and before then we must get an able replacement. We need someone who can assist Ezekiel Odera in the striking force,” Kamau told Goal.com.
At the same time, Kamau has expressed issues with the date of the KPL Top 8 final which has been scheduled for June 14 insisting it should be pushed further.
Kamau said the date denies his side an opportunity to make good preparations as his players need time to recover from a gruelling first leg of the KPL.
Thika United will play Tusker in the Top 8 final with the winner walking away with a Sh1million prize money.
