Europe is overrated!
The transfer fee is Kshs 467 million!! . Remember we are not talking Naira here. This is major, folks!
Olunga will shake up the Chinese league! He's barely 22! Yeah, you heard that right. He was born in 1995! After Yekini scored that goal in Dallas!




Kenyan striker Michael Olunga has completed a surprise move to Chinese Super league side Guizhou Hengfeng Zhicheng.

News outlets in Sweden have reported that the Chinese outfit triggered the Sh467 million fee asked by Olunga’s former club, Sweden’s Djurgardens IF.

Olunga, 22, formerly on loan to Gor Mahia from Liberty Academy, scored 12 goals for the Swedish side in his debut season. He had three years left on his contract.

As expected, the striker’s move to the monied Chinese league has been a topic of discussion among Kenyans and the striker was trending on twitter for the better part of yesterday.

Before Olunga’s move, the towering striker had reportedly attracted interest from Russian giants CSKA Moscow and Turkish side Galatasaray SK.

The switch has, therefore, come as a surprise to many Kenyans, some of whom believe that the promising striker’s footballing career has come to an end as the Chinese League is considered a last resort for aging footballers looking to cash in before retirement.

We have sampled some of the reactions from twitter and Facebook:

Okay for those based in Nigeria and need to understand the magnitude of this transfer, here are the numbers

467,000,000.00 KES = 1,371,083,980.00 NGN

That's almost 1.5 billion Naira. Billion with a B, folks.
Remember Olunga is just getting started.
If Olunga was born in Naija, he would probably be playing his second stint for the under 17 team.
You think we don't know why your teams are so dominant in that competition?

Unfortunately, China never worked out. It was too small a theatre for Michael Olunga who has just moved to La Liga.
Well, he scored two goals on his debut. Not since Roger Milla, Yekini & Eto'o has the continent had such a lethal striker!
He's faster and stronger than Neymar!

They sent him out on loan. Wanyama should be a shillings trillionaire

No, the Kenyan currency has not yet gone south the way of Naira.
Personally I cannot accept Naira as payment for anything right now.
I remember when it was stronger than the dollar. Naija has seen better times.

Son, 1 Kshs is equivalent to 3.50 Nairas!

Y'all have mismanaged your country's economy with all the wealth mother Africa put at your doorstep, selling the country's jewels for a song.
