Vincent Nyaberi is beefing up his squad ahead of their maiden FKFPL campaign but he feels it would be problematic working with top-flight stars.
Murang’a Seal head coach Vincent Nyaberi does not intend to beef up his squad with many players who have Premier League experience since he feels it would be problematic working with them.
Seal earned top-flight promotion after finishing second to Shabana FC in the second-tier National Super League (NSL) and have been linked with a number of players from both the Premier League and lower leagues.

STARS ABROAD Former Manchester United midfielder heaps praise on Harambee Stars winger
The winger has featured once for Harambee Stars in the 2-1 win over Zambia back in 2019.
However, the tactician feels it would be less problematic working with players coming from the lower leagues than the Premier League hence his decision to target most of his new signings in the NSL.
“Most of the players I want to sign do not have Premier League experience, they are from the NSL because if you observe how players play in that league, when they come to the top flight it, could be a little easier for them to follow instructions,” Nyaberi told Pulse Sports.

FOOTBALL Rating the foreigners that have landed Gor Mahia & AFC Leopards in hot soup: Were they worth the trouble?
Pulse Sports puts the foreigners that have caused K’Ogalo and Ingwe so much pain on the weighing scale to gauge whether they were value for money.
“There were some positions where I had challenges in the NSL and I must beef up in defence, goalkeeping, midfield, and striking,” he added.
“The team that got us promoted was not a bad one. It would not be good to replace them and bring a whole new team which will take time to gel.”
