Chan 2020 Qualifying: Derrick Otanga and Ibrahim Shambi earn late Harambee Stars call up

Kenya head coach Sebastien Migne has called Derrick Otanga and Ibrahim Shambi up to the squad preparing for the upcoming Africa Nations Championships (Chan) qualifier against Tanzania.

Otanga earns his maiden call-up to the national team while Shambi was part of the Kenya U-23 team which lost to Sudan in the 2020 Olympic qualifiers in March.

The first leg will be played on July 28, 2019, in Dar es Salaam, and the second on August 4, at the Kasarani Stadium in Nairobi.

Kenya has never qualified for the Chan tournament, which is exclusively reserved for players actively engaging in their domestic leagues.
