The brewers hope to heal the pain of last season by wrestling back the Premier League title from champions Gor Mahia
Tusker FC are back for their preseason training ahead of the 2023-24 campaign as they look to banish the disappointments of last season when they finished second in the league and FKF Cup.
The brewers were on course to making it three Premier League titles in a row before letting it slip in the final three games of the season with Gor Mahia claiming it by just one point over them and any hopes of wiping off their tears a with the FKF Cup went up in smoke when Kakamega Homeboyz beat them in the final a week later.
With the squad now back in training, the club hopes for good tidings in the coming campaign.
“Dusting the disappointment off, setting the pace for the new season. The boys have started arriving in time for our pre-season, with week one commencing today,” Tusker said via a social media post on Monday.
