Migori Youth hotshot Syphas Otieno lights up NSL, eyes big move to Europe

Migori Youth forward Syphas Otieno has emerged as one of the standout performers in the National Super League this season, leading the score charts with six goals after just nine matches.

‎The in-form striker has now set his sights on an impressive personal milestone, aiming to finish the campaign with at least 17 goals or more.

‎Despite his flying start, Syphas admits he did not anticipate such a sharp beginning to the season. His consistent performances in front of goal, however, have boosted his confidence as he looks to maintain his momentum in the remaining 19 fixtures.

‎"I did not imagine things would turn out this way. I'm scoring freely, away but at home, that's where things are a bit hard. We are happy at the top and also, we are taking each game at a time. My target is to score at least 17 goals and 10 assists," he said.

‎Beyond his club success, the young striker harbours even bigger ambitions: to one day represent the national team and, remarkably, play for Spanish powerhouse Real Madrid, a testament to his belief and determination to reach the highest level of football.

‎"My dream is to play in Europe, especially Real Madrid. Our target is to continue this way and win the league," he added.

‎With more matches still to play, Syphas remains optimistic about increasing his goal tally and continuing to inspire Migori Youth’s push for success this season.
