Tusker missed the defender for the better part of the pre-season as he spent weeks in Sweden, where he tried his luck with second-tier sides Vasalund IF and Vasteras SK.
Tusker left-back Levin Joseph Leftie Odhiambo has opened up on his experience when he went for trials in Sweden during the off-season and how it ended up shaping him into a better player.
Odhiambo was arguably the league’s best left-back last season, contributing numerous assists with his dangerous deliveries from both open play and set piece situations, before leaving for Sweden.

FKFPL Levin Odhiambo: From being injured and clubless to potentially delivering a double with Tusker
Odhiambo signed for Tusker in the mid-season after stellar performances for Mathare United, having been a free agent just eight months ago.
“I was happy first of all, going for the trials outside the country,” Odhiambo told the club’s media channel.
“I arrived there and the atmosphere was totally different and I had to cope with it for a few days and I managed to have the right skills there, to have the right coaching from the coaches who were there and it was also about gaining experience from them.
“It was about gaining experience from them for the one month I was there and when I came back, I had the confidence but I had to take a little bit of time as I was not with the team during pre-season.
“I have been with the team for long now and I am catching up with them well.”
Odhiambo revealed that he excelled in the trials but elected to return to Tusker and wait for the January window so as to start a fresh season with the club that he will agree terms with.
