Gor Mahia's new signing Levin Odhiambo has revealed his targets after completing a long-anticipated move to the 20-time champions from rivals Tusker.
Levin 'Leftie' Odhiambo has revealed excitement at finally signing for Gor Mahia following months of negotiations.
Odhiambo had been in the midst of a transfer tussle since January, when Tusker reportedly demanded Ksh3 million for his services, something Gor Mahia could not agree to considering the marauding left-back only had two months left on the one-year deal he signed when he joined from Mathare United in March 2023.
He has joined K’Ogalo as a free agent, and was unveiled on Tuesday before taking part in his first training session with the club.
Expressing his satisfaction with the long-awaited transfer, Odhiambo told Pulse Sports, “It is a good feeling for me because I had been talking to Gor Mahia for quite some time and finally it has happened even if it came late.

Gor Mahia are currently top of the league table on 50 points after 24 games but have been on a sticky run of form that risks putting their title challenge in jeopardy, with Tusker and Bandari seven points away.
However, the Kamukunji High School alumnus has big targets.
“I want to get as much playing time as possible for the remaining matches and it will also be good if we won the league after those 10 matches to take home the medal," said Odhiambo.
“I will give my best and anytime I get a chance, I will do my thing.”
Despite the transition to a new club, Odhiambo expressed gratitude for the warm reception he received from his new teammates.
