Karauri questions record-breaking FKF-BetKing sponsorship deal for KPL

Former Kenya SportPesa CEO Ronald Karauri has cast aspersions on the recently revealed sponsorship deal between the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) and BetKing.

The FKF announced the new deal for the Kenyan Premier League (KPL) is set to run for five years but Karauri feels the federation could have approached local companies for the same purpose.

Karauri signed a sponsorship deal with the KPL before SportPesa exited the country due to a battle on taxation with the government.
