Why FKF presidential aspirant is reading mischief into upcoming elections
Football Kenya Federation presidential hopeful Tom Alila has claimed that there is foul play and mischief in the build to the federation's presidential election.
The 24-year-old has three senior caps with Serbia after making just one appearance with the Under-21 side.
Chelsea signed Petrovic in 2023 from New England Revolution after making 43 appearances.
It remains to be seen if Petrovic can live up to his billing with Blues already stocked with many goalkeepers. Chelsea also signed Mike Penders from Genk and remained with the club on loan for one more season.
Maresca has publicly defended Sanchez after some horror displays, the latest being against Brighton, something that was not witnessed when Petrovic guarded the Chelsea goal.
