‘I have 25 years of coaching experience’ – Gor Mahia’s Oliveira hits back at Caf & FKF

Gor Mahia coach Roberto Oliveira Goncalves has hit out at those claiming he doesn’t have qualified papers by stating “I am a qualified coach with 25 years of experience.”

The Brazilian joined the Kenyan champions in August to replace Steven Polack but on Friday, the Confederation of African Football (Caf) wrote to the FKF questioning his qualifications and further warned that he will not be allowed to sit in the dugout in the Caf Champions League match against Armee Patriotique Rwandaise FC (APR) of Rwanda on November 28 in Kigali.

As if not enough, the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) also came out to clarify that indeed, the former Rayon Sports tactician did not have qualification papers, with president Nick Mwendwa saying he will not be allowed to coach the team in the FKF Premier League set to kick off on November 28.
