Olunga: Al Duhail confirm Kenya striker's permanent contract

Al Duhail have confirmed the signing of Kenya international Michael Olunga on a three-year contract from Japanese club Kashiwa Reysol.

The Qatar Stars League club swooped for the 26-year-old striker following his goalscoring exploits in Japan where he scored 28 goals in 32 J1 League matches last season.

Following his switch to the Middle East, Olunga joins former Morocco captain Medhi Benatia in Sabri Lamouchi's team as they compete for the top-flight title.

“The club's management have succeeded in signing a contract with the top scorer in the Japanese League, with a professional contract for three seasons, coming from Kashiwa Reysol,” the club statement read.
