Patrick Osiako (born 15 November 1986, in Mombasa) is retired a Kenyan footballer who turned out for Coast Stars and Tusker in Kenya, Mjällby AIF, FC Linköping City, IFK Haninge, IFK Hässleholm and Syrianska Eskilstuna IF in Sweden, Petrolul Ploieşti in Romania, Hapoel Be'er Sheva in Israel, and Simurq in Azerbaijan as a midfielder.

Career

Osiako played for Coast Stars aged just 16 in the 2003–04 season before later crossing over to Tusker for a season and a half.

In December 2007, Osiako was signed by Superettan side Mjällby AIF on a two-and-a-half-year contract. His contract with Mjällby expired at the end of the 2009 season; however, he signed a new two-year contract with Mjällby shortly after.

Following Osiako's release from Mjällby trained with Sölvesborgs whilst exploring options in Russia before having a trial with Romanian side Petrolul Ploiești. In March 2012, following a successful trial, Osiako signed a two-month contract with Petrolul Ploiești. After the expiration of his contract Osiako considered a new contract from Petrolul Ploiești before signing for Hapoel Be'er Sheva.

In August 2013, Osiako signed for Azerbaijan Premier League side Simurq from Hapoel Be'er Sheva. When Osiako made his debut for Simurq on 3 August 2013, coming on as an 87th-minute substitute for Stjepan Poljak in their 2–0 victory over Ravan Baku, he became only the second Kenyan to play in the Azerbaijan Premier League after Allan Wanga. Osiako scored his first goal for Simurq on 1 November 2013, in their 3–2 away defeat to Baku.

International career

Osiako earned his first call up to the Kenya national football team in February 2005 while at Tusker then coached by Mohamed Kheri for a game against Botswana in a 2006 Nations Cup/World Cup qualifier.

A year and a half later under caretaker coach Tom Olaba, Osiako got his first international cap in a friendly game against Tanzania that ended in a 0–0 draw at the National Stadium in Dar es Salaam on 4 October 2006. Osiako went on to earn 13 National caps between 2006 and 2013.
