Harambee Stars coach Engin Firat has shed light on reports that he was involved in the transfer of Benson Omala from Gor Mahia to Lebanese outfit Al-Safa FC.
The 26-year-old has been integral to Starlets, helping bring the country to its first CECAFA Women's Championship finals in 2019.
First selected for the U-17 youth side in 2015, Adam joined the senior national team soon after and has featured for Kenya in all major tournaments since, including the recent 2024 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
“Jereko is an exciting player that will be a great fit here,” said head coach Vlatko Andonovski. “Her enthusiasm, skill and work ethic are exactly what we are looking for as we get back into the regular season.”

Gor Mahia & Kenya Police set for financial boost as CAF reveal rewards for preliminary round teams
Gor Mahia and Kenya Police are set to earn big from their participation in the Champions League and Confederation Cup after CAF announced prize money for preliminary round teams.
The lethal striker gained notoriety early in her career, earning the nickname ‘Dogo’ due to her small frame.
She began playing professionally in high school with Mombasa Olympic ladies before joining FKF Women’s Premier League team Thika Queens starting in 2018. With the Thika Queens, she emerged as the league’s top scorer in 2021 after an undefeated season.
Later that year, she made the move to Hakkarigucu Spor of the Turkish Super League, scoring 11 goals in her first 17 games with the club, pushing the team to a fourth-place finish.
