Former Harambee Stars striker Dennis Oliech has officially retired from football.

Oliech played for Gor Mahia last after joining them in January 2, 2019. He is said to have had hopes of being signed by a club currently in the Kenya Premier League (KPL).

“I have officially retired from playing football and will venture into business. I had stated that I would bounce back by joining Wazito or Bandari, but nothing is forthcoming, that’s why I have not seen any need to continue,” Oliech said.

Dennis Oliech has now moved into business.

The former international striker is also said to have cited financial challenges currently surrounding the Kenyan football scene as why he chose to retire.

“Kenyan football is on its deathbed and that is evident by the go slows and walkovers in the league,” explained Oliech.
