On August 27, 2019, Kenyan Premier League champions Gor Mahia Football Club terminated the contract of striker Dennis Oliech over serious and persistent cases of misconduct.

The club cited Oliech's poor performance on the pitch and serial absence from training without permission as the reasons for his premature ouster, just months into his two-year deal.

According to a club statement, the player's actions were in breach of his contract and FIFA regulations.

"In pursuance of the provisions of Clause 6 of your Player Agreement Contract entered into with Gor Mahia Football Club, we hereby write to advise you that we have terminated your contract with immediate effect on grounds of Just Cause as also stipulated in FIFA Article 14 Regulations of the Statues and Transfer of Players," the club wrote to Oliech.
