“Well, he left the country for Brazil and there has been minimal contact between him and the club regarding his future,” the source said.
“Silva is under a one-year contract and it seems he is ready to have it cancelled due to money issues at our club and his travel is putting the club in a dilemma. I can only hope things will get better before the season begins.”
The 20-year-old star made his debut against Nzoia Sugar in a game Gor Mahia were defeated in, before he scored against Kakamega Homeboyz and Bidco United.
Meanwhile, Kenya U20 striker Benson Omala has stated a change of environment and a new culture will not hinder his ambition of a good time with Swedish side Linkoping City.
The former Kariobangi Sharks star also spoke about the advantages one enjoys at
K Ogalo compared to the other Football Federation Premier League sides. The biggest difference is that Gor Mahia is a door-opening club that one can be spotted easily by any club that wants a quality player, explained the goalkeeper.
In his first season at Gor Mahia, Mathews participated in a Caf assignment for the second time and said a game against Algeria s CR Belouizdad - which eliminated them from the Champions League this season - was his toughest game. The toughest game at Gor Mahia was against CR Belouzidad of Algeria, he said. Having socked in six goals in that encounter and making a couple of saves, I had learnt a lot and it made me challenge myself on improving on various areas to be the best.
A clear victory and a reward for the players who have worked hard in a consecutive cycle of games, in which they are also adapting to new ideas and style of play – with little room for making mistakes, Pinto said as quoted by the club s
The tactician further revealed another target apart from the deserved win over the Kericho-based charges. In addition to winning, today we achieved a goal that we had – not to concede goals, Pinto added. The opponents did not reach our goal many times and this is a collective defensive work which we have trained a lot and it was reflected – the first time since I arrived here.
Goal on Monday. We are playing well as a team, and our defence is solid. Chances are there but we are struggling to get the ball in the back of the net. So we have to find a solution because I believe if we would have taken a fraction of the chances created, the team would have been in the top five. We have to do something in the attacking department.
However, the 51-year-old conceded he will have to let some players leave in order to create space for the new arrivals.
The tactician also commented on Saturday s game against Ulinzi Stars that ended in a goalless draw.
Goal on Sunday. Yes, Gor Mahia dominated, but we denied them spaces to be comfortable. We had a plan of frustrating them and I am glad our objective was achieved since they did not break our defence and we kept a clean sheet. We finally got them late into the game and scored the winning goal.
The former Zoo FC coach believes the win is what they needed to boost their confidence ahead of their forthcoming assignments. We have been having off-pitch issues that are financially related, and during times like these the players need something to boost their confidence and morale, Okoth continued.
