Harambee Stars' Engin Firat banking on KCB's red hot Francis Kahiro for 2025 CHAN qualifiers return leg against South Sudan
Harambee Stars coach Engin Firat has called up KCB's Francis Kahiro to the national team ahead of the return leg of the CHAN qualifiers against Sudan.
KCB's form has been one of the best in the league this season, with just one loss the only time KCB have failed to register a result. The team has managed six wins and three draws although the season is still in its infancy, astute defending makes the bankers' watertight defense hard to break.
Odhiambo emphasised the importance of staying on top of the table for as long as possible, and that the club's ultimate goal is to win the Premier League title.
KCB is the most ruthless team in front of goal in the division after finding the back of the net on 16 occasions.
