KPL Transfers: Stop the rumours, Odhiambo is contracted to AFC Leopards – Shikanda

AFC Leopards have rubbished social media reports claiming their key midfielder Austin Odhiambo has ditched the club for rivals Gor Mahia.

Social media has been awash with reports linking the young midfielder to the Kenyan Premier League (KPL) champions ahead of the new season.

Ingwe chairman Dan Shikanda has come out to clarify the situation, stating Odhiambo is contracted to the club until December 2023, and the buy-out clause in the player's contract only applies to foreign teams.

“Those are rumours from those who want to destabilise AFC Leopards, Austin [Odhiambo] is our player, he has a contract with us until December 2023, and in the clause, he cannot sign for a local team but can only be allowed to sign for a team outside the country,” Shikanda told Goal on Tuesday.
