In 2017, Olunga signed for Chinese side Guizhou Zhicheng, a move many pundits believe was a wrong career choice for a young player who was on the rise.
He scored just two goals in nine games and was on the move again, joining Spanish side Girona on loan. He was sparingly used at the club, but scored three goals in 14 matches, before returning East this time to Japan to join Kashiwa Reysol in 2018.
After scoring another goal against Gamba Osaka in Kashiwa Reysol 3-0's win on Wednesday, Kenyan striker Michael Olunga's future continues to be the subject of debate.
It was his 15th goal of the season, pulling him six clear of his nearest rivals in the race for the Golden Boot in the Japanese top flight league.
