Tiellen Oguta is a Kenyan football manager and former player.

Club career

Oguta played in Kenyan capital Nairobi side Gor Mahia until 1999. In the turn of the century, he moved to Kosovo, which had just become a UN protectorate a year prior after a NATO war against FR Yugoslavia (Serbia), and signed with FC Drita, thus becoming the first ever person of color to play in Kosovo. He later moved to KF Besiana where he won the Kosovar championship, Kosovar Cup and Kosovar Super Cup, all in one year. He used to play in Kosovo as left-back.

In summer 2003, President's Cup defending champions, Kenya Pipeline, have signed former Yugoslavia-based defender, Tiellen Oguta.

International career

Ogutu started appearing in the Kenyan national team still in the 1990s. He made 13 appearances between 1996 and 1999.

Coaching career

By 2014 he was assistant manager at Kenya Revenue Authority.
