Former Mathare United forward Kevin Opiyo Oliech has passed on.

Opiyo, 33, was the young brother of former Kenyan international and Nantes striker Dennis Oliech and former Harambee star player Andrew Oyombe, who also played for the national team Harambee Stars and Gor Mahia.

His brother Nixon Onywanda confirmed the news, but was so distraught to speak.

Opiyo died in Germany on his way to the United States of America where he was to be treated for cancer.

Opiyo played for Kenyan Premier League sides Tusker, Ushuru, Thika United, and Nairobi City Stars.
