REVEALED: Why Olunga, Odada and Anyembe were initially left out of the Harambee Stars provisional squad
Olunga and other established foreign-based players in the team will link up with the side in Malawi, but why were they initially left out of the provisional Harambee Stars squad?
Nyamweya urged the club to put on a strong finish in their remaining fixtures to ensure they remain in the top-flight league.
"I want to encourage Shabana FC to put up a strong fight in the last few games to ensure they survive relegation. Shabana has sparked more interest in the league since its promotion, and while the performance has not been up to the required expectations, the management and technical bench are working tirelessly to ensure the club retains its status in the top league," said Nyamweya in a statement.
"As patron of Shabana, I am offering full support to the players and technical bench as they prepare for the final three games. I am encouraged by their commitment, and I trust they will deliver good results," concluded Nyamweya.
