Edward Bahati Obara Odhiambo-Anaclet (born 31 August 1985) is a Tanzanian professional football manager and former footballer who played as a right-back. He most recently served as manager of North Leigh.
Odhiambo began his career as a youth player with Oxford United before joining Southampton in 2003, signing professional terms the following year. He spent loan spells at Chester City and Tamworth during the 2004–05 season but did not make a first-team appearance for Southampton. In July 2006, he returned to Oxford United, where he established himself as a first-team regular. Odhiambo signed for Stevenage Borough in May 2008, winning the FA Trophy in 2009 and contributing to the club's promotion to the Football League the following season.
He subsequently spent one season apiece at Conference Premier clubs Newport County and Gateshead, before joining Brackley Town of the Conference North in May 2012. After four years and 139 appearances at Brackley, Odhiambo later had spells with Oxford City, Kidlington, Banbury United, and North Leigh. Transitioning into coaching, he held player-coach roles at both Kidlington and Banbury, before being appointed manager of North Leigh in March 2021, where he helped the club achieve promotion to the Southern League Premier Division South via the play-offs in May 2022.
