Former AFC Leopards coach Patrick Aussems is currently in talks with Gor Mahia to potentially take over the coaching role following the expected departure of Johnathan McKinstry. McKinstry is set to leave Gor Mahia to take up a new role as the head coach of Gambia’s national team. This development has stirred mixed reactions among fans of both clubs, with AFC Leopards supporters particularly uneasy about the prospect of their former coach joining their rivals.
Aussems, a Belgian tactician with a wealth of experience in African football, including successful stints at Simba SC in Tanzania and Al Hilal in Sudan, is seen as a strong candidate for the Gor Mahia position. His potential move to K’Ogalo is viewed positively by some Gor Mahia fans, especially with the team gearing up for the CAF Champions League next season. However, the coach has also attracted interest from other clubs, notably South African giants Kaizer Chiefs, making his next move highly anticipated within the African football community.
