Gor Mahia have laid bare the number of candidates who have expressed an interest in the coaching job as well as other key roles that are vacant at the club.
Gor Mahia have made public the number of candidates who have shown an interest in the club’s coaching job following the opening of the application process early this month.
The record Kenyan champions parted ways with their entire technical bench, including backroom staff such as medics as well as the Chief Executive Officer, following their less than impressive 2024-225 season.
K’Ogalo then opened the application process, making it known the qualifications they were looking for, especially in the next coach, and at the close of the application period, the response was overwhelming as nearly 150 candidates had expressed an interest in the coaching job.

After a more detailed review, the number was further narrowed down to 247 applications distributed as follows,” Gor Mahia revealed via a statement on social media.

Ghost Mulee Slams Gor Mahia's ‘White Coaches’ Obsession After Zico’s Sacking
Former Harambee Stars coach Ghost Mulee has criticized Gor Mahia for favoring foreign coaches over qualified locals like Zico Otieno.
“Since I became chairman, I’ve never received a single application from a local coach. This is largely due to the immense pressure associated with managing Gor Mahia, especially from fans who have traditionally favoured foreign coaches,” Rachier said on Radio Citizen.
Gor Mahia are preparing for major changes in the dugout, playing unit and in the secretariate, in a bid to regain their lost glory.
