The coach however is expected to lead his team (Posts Rangers FC) in the new season where they are slated to take on newbies Bidco United on November 28, 2020.
Gor Mahia will hope that they can sort the documents of coach Oliveira if they are to make it to the next round of the CAF Champions League.
