Uganda will test whether Harambee Stars are ready for Afcon qualifiers - Mwendwa

Football Kenya Federation (FKF) president Nick Mwendwa has stated the friendly matches lined up for Harambee Stars will help prepare the team for 2021 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) qualifiers.

Harambee Stars are scheduled to play three friendly matches in the coming weeks starting with Uganda on Sunday, and then face Libya and Mozambique.

New coach Francis Kimanzi has been leading the team in training during the build-up for the match against the Cranes and Mwendwa feels the former assistant coach is building a different team to what came before.

“We have given the coach enough room and time to prepare his own team,” Mwendwa told Goal on Saturday.
