Abroad: Kenyan international Aboud Omar fired by Bulgarian club

Aboud Omar has been sacked by Slavia Sofia, accusing him of insulting the club, his teammates and the state of Bulgaria. The 25-year-old left back became the first Kenyan to play in the Bulgarian league in 2016 and quickly helped the team to qualify for the Europa League.

In a statement, the club mentioned that Omar had been malicious for months and they were unsure as to his motivations for the said behavior.

Stefanov also mentioned that all the players of the seven-time Bulgarian champions unanimously backed his decision to relieve Omar of his duties. The Kenyan international is yet to comment on the issue.
