Notable omission from the SS Assad lineup for this crucial training camp is their last season's top scorer, Beja Nyamawi, who recently made a noteworthy transfer to Football Kenya Federation Premier League side Bandari FC.
Nyamawi's departure leaves a significant void in the squad's offensive department, and his absence will undoubtedly be felt as the team gears up for the challenges that lie ahead.
However, this also presents an opportunity for emerging talents within SS Assad to step up and fill the shoes of the departed star.
