Bundesliga 2 trials for Kimani and Oliech

 Updated on 10/02/12  |    By DENNIS MACHIO

 

2011 Kenyan Premier League player of the year Kevin Kimani and Kevin Oliech are currently training with Bundesliga Division 2 side Aachen. Both players featured for Mathare United last season and have several trials lined-up in Europe.

The duo landed at Krefeld,Germany on Monday and were scheduled to train with fifth tier side KFC Uerdingen 05 but heavy snow went against the plans.

Since KFC Uerdingen 05 is an amateur side that could not offer them a professional contract, a requirement for foreigners playing in Germany, they have shifted base to Bundesliga 2 side TSV Alemannia Aachen for trials.

Apart from Aachen ,the duo have offers in French Ligue 2 club,a top Hungarian side and another Bundesliga 2 club.

Last season , Kimani  won the midfielder of the year award, was runners up in top scorers category and also bagged the overall player-of-the-year title.Kevin Oliech is the younger brother to AJ Auxerre striker Dennis Oliech.
