AFC Leopards defender Yusuf Mainge has left the club for Slovakian side, FK Pohronie, the club has announced.

The right-back who was recently summoned to Harambee Stars squad for the forthcoming African Championship (CHAN) qualification match against Tanzania has been with Leopards for the last three seasons.

He has however failed to establish himself as a first-choice right-back in the team and towards the end of last season, he was third in the pecking order behind Rwandese international Soter Kayumba and Dennis Sikhayi.

The Kakamega High School alumnus has now managed to secure a loan deal to Slovakia as revealed by the club through posts on their social media pages.

“Yusuf Nasr Mainge has left the club. He’ll be joining a Slovekian team FK Pohronie on a season-long loan. All the best Mainge,” the club posted.
