Coach Engin Firat has named his provisional squad for the upcoming AFCON Qualifiers against Zimbabwe and Namibia.
The Goalkeepers are: Ian Otieno, Bryne Omondi and Patrick Matasi. The defenders are: Collins Sichenje, Joseph Okumu, Johnstone Omurwa, Amos Nondi, Abud Omar, Eric Ouma, Sylvester Owino and Alphonce Omija.
The Midfilders are, Kayci Odhiambo, Chris Erambo, Richard Odada, Anthony Akumu, Kenneth Muguna, Eric Johanna, Ronney Onyango, Austine Odhiambo, Patrick Otieno, Duke Abuya, Timothy Ouma and Clifton Miheso.
The forward players are. John Avire, Michael Olunga, Jonah Ayunga, Benson Omalla and Victor Omune.
The matches will be played in Uganda and this is a big setback to Kenya because these are supposed to be home matches, that need to be played on the home ground with the home support.
Coach Engin Firat has no otherwise but to make sure that, he gets all the maximum points from the two games.
Many people have applauded the Coach for picking the squad because the players who have been selected, have all been very outstanding in their individual performances for their respective clubs.
The only worry is that Kenya has not nurtured very many strikers who can score very many goals for the National team. According to them, Michael Olunga has performed very well, but he needs someone who can compete with him in that position.
There are however some notable names that are missing in the squad. The names of the players that are missing are like, Dan Anyembe and Ayub Timbe. The fans were however happy that, Eric Ouma Marcelo who was injured but he is now back.
Many people also said that, the squad has been together for some time now and the only thing that they need, is some time so that they can deliver some good results. They said that, the consistency should be maintained for the Nation to achieve great results.
