Kashiwa Reysol’s Olunga a doubt for Kenya vs Comoros Afcon qualifiers

Michael Olunga may not link up with the Kenya national team after the Kashiwa Reysol camp was hit by three coronavirus cases.

Japan's Professional League (JPL) confirmed the cases on Tuesday and the match between Kashiwa Reysol and Vegalta Sendai had to be rescheduled.

Olunga’s head coach Nelsinho Baptista was among the confirmed members of the team who had contracted the virus but the identities of the other people who tested positive have not been made public yet.

Olunga is far ahead of his J1 League Golden Boot rivals as he is the leading scorer with 23 goals.
