Afcon Qualifiers: 'Mulee is super brave to leave out important Kenya players vs Egypt' - Okoth

Former Sofapaka striker Ronald Okoth believes Harambee Stars coach Jacob 'Ghost' Mulee is super brave after leaving out influential players for their forthcoming Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.

Kenya will host Egypt on Thursday, March 25 before playing Togo four days later. In his squad for the two games, the veteran tactician opted to leave out captain Victor Wanyama, Johanna Omolo, Eric Johanna, Brian Mandela, and Ayub Timbe.

The 32-year-old believes this is a good opportunity for other players to show their potential for the team and cement their places.
