Gor Mahia FC has terminated the contract of striker Dennis Oliech over serious and persistent cases of misconduct.
The player’s poor performance on the pitch and serial absence from training without permission from the club have led to his premature ouster from the record Kenyan champions, just months into his two-year deal.
The aggrieved club has previously reached out to Oliech without success and resorted to termination of his contract.
