FKF Premier League side Tusker FC have signed goalkeeper Joseph Ochuka from Bandari FC in the ongoing transfer window.
The keeper has penned a year-long deal with Tusker FC. Ochuka, known for his agility, sharp reflexes, ball-playing ability, and leadership on the field, has been a standout performer in the Premier League for Bandari.
Tusker coach reaction
His contributions at Bandari FC have garnered him a reputation as one of the league’s top goalkeepers, and he was among those with the most clean sheets this season.
Tusker FC interim coach Charles Okere believes Ochuka will be a key addition following the departure of Brian Bwire.
“When we lost Brian Bwire, we had to bring in an equally experienced and talented goalkeeper into the squad. We are delighted to bring in Joseph. His goalkeeping abilities and experience in the top tier of Kenyan football make him an excellent fit for our team. Joseph’s presence will enhance our defensive strength and add valuable depth to our squad,” Okere told Tusker media.
