Olunga’s short stay in China was made worse after he was plucked off Guizhou Zhicheng, first team squad after Chinese authorities introduced foreign quota rule which allows a team to have only three foreign players in the 40-man squad.

The lanky former Gor Mahia, Tusker and Thika United striker has so far missed three matches since he was axed from the squad.
