Harambee Stars Afcon qualifying preparations in limbo as Kenya delays FKF green light

Harambee Stars' preparations for the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) qualifiers are still on hold owing to the government's delay to give the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) an okay to start training.

The Federation wrote to the authorities proposing the dates which clubs and the national team should get back on the pitch but under strict guidelines. However, with time running out, especially for Harambee Stars, the government has not yet responded to the request made by the FKF.

"The government has not yet given us feedback despite us having the national team games coming," Federation's head Nick Mwendwa told Goal on Thursday.
