Revealed: Mathare United FKF Premier League opener postponed over StarTimes deal

Football Kenya Federation Premier League CEO David Thiru has explained why the Mathare United vs Ulinzi Stars league game has been postponed.

In a letter obtained by Goal, Thiru has revealed the match has been pushed to another date so as to give the 2008 Premier League champions time to go through the broadcasting deal the FKF signed with the StarTimes.

Mathare United, Gor Mahia and Zoo FC are the clubs who have not signed the undertaking to ratify the StarTimes deal and the three clubs are yet to play their opening games of the new season.
