The anticipated move of Amavubi Stars’ skipper Olivier Karekezi from Tippeligaen relegated side Ham Kam has been delayed to early next year.

Karekezi who is on holiday told Times Sport that his transfer from Ham Kam will be known when the European transfer widow reopens in January when he starts pre-season training with the Norwegian club.

"I came on vacation when nothing fruitful had been reached by the my club and the teams that have shown desire to recruit me.”

"Ham Kam officials are taking time to learn all the possible deals which would see them gain a lot in my transfer deal thus the delay,” Karekezi said.

Karekezi further added that despite the delay, he will not be playing for the relegated side come next season.

"I have made my stand clear to the club; they know that I will not play for Ham Kam next season. We have talked about this and am confident of a possible deal soon or later” Karekezi said.

Meanwhile, two European clubs Rosenberg and Energie Cottbus have been mentioned as possible destinations for the 25 year old star.

Norwegian champions Rosenberg and Bundesliga side Energie Cottbus contacted Hamarkameratene about the player’s availability before the Norwegian league climaxed early this month.

With 20 league titles and nine Norwegian Cup (Norwegian Championship) titles, Rosenborg Ballklub is the most successful Norwegian side having dominated Norwegian football since the start of the 1990s.

FC Energie Cottbus is currently rooted at the bottom of the league table.
