Gor to bolster defence, attack - Spiers

Gor Mahia head coach Andreas Spiers is keen to bolster his defence and striking force ahead of next term’s campaign.

Gor have struggled this term and the 59-year-old German trainer says he’s identified areas that must find permanent solution to enable K’Ogalo compete effectively.

“I will give first priority to central defence and two super strikers. Ass you know we have struggled to score goals and at the same time we have conceded some goals due to our porous defence," he lamented.

Gor recently lost former captain Harun Shakava, a central defender to Kenya Police while in the preceding years key talents such as Joash Onyango, popularly known as ‘Berlin Wall’ have also ditched the club but the quality they offered hasn’t been matched in the market transfers.

“I want two, young, tall, and speedy strikers who can win aerial balls, get us penalties and must be able to make good use of both legs to score from any angle like Michael Olunga used to do," he equipped of the league’s Most Valuable Player in the 2015 season.

Spiers however did not disclose the identity of his targeted players simply saying ‘some have been identified’.

K’Ogalo have scored 30 goals from 30 outings and have conceded 25 goals in the process. They currently sit at number four on the log with 48 points.
