Kenyan Giants Gor Mahia are interested in signing Kitara FC’s Denis Omedi this transfer window.
Omedi has a year left on his employment contract at Kitara FC whom he joined at the start of last season.
Swift Sports Uganda understands that Gor Mahia are strongly interested in Omedi’s signature.
Last season, Omedi finished with 14 league goals only behind KCCA FC’s Muhammad Shaban who was the top scorer with 17 goals.
He also helped Kitara clinch their maiden Stanbic Uganda Cup beating NEC FC in the final that was played at Muteesa II Stadium in Wankulukuku.
Omedi also featured for the Uganda Cranes against Botswana and Algeria in the World Cup qualifiers at Mandela National Stadium. He assisted Shaban for Cranes’ winner against Botswana.
Before joining Kitara FC, Omedi featured for Booma FC and finished as the FUFA Big League top scorer during the 2022/23 campaign with 22 goals.
Gor Mahia successfully retained the Football Kenya Federation Premier League (FKFPL) title winning it for the 21st time in the club’s history, last season under the stewardship of former Uganda Cranes head coach Jonathan McKinstry who joined Namibia after the triumph.
