Harambee Stars midfielder holds final talks with Yanga ahead of mouthwatering move
The Kenya international, who shone for both Sindiga Big Stars and Ihefu last season, is now on the verge of a move to Yanga and could be unveiled on Wednesday according to reports in Tanzania.
With his departure Kenya Police is left with Clinton Kinanga and Rashid Mchelenga as the main options up front.
Kinanga was mostly used as a substitute last season, while Mchelenga, who has not yet found the net for the club, saw limited action and may not be retained.
Samil Babu's coached outfit is reportedly eyeing Sofapaka's Jacob Onyango, who has recently made headlines by scoring in the promotion/relegation playoff against Naivas FC.
The club’s recruitment strategy seems geared towards not only replacing the lost firepower but also enhancing the team's overall attacking capabilities as they face a demanding season ahead.
