Harambee Stars: Kimanzi explain why he axed Matasi for Ian Otieno

Kenya coach Francis Kimanzi has revealed the reason he opted to drop keeper Patrick Matasi from the squad to face Mozambique.

The former Posta Rangers and Tusker FC custodian was among the surprise exclusions from the squad named by Kimanzi for the upcoming friendly against Mozambique set for Kasarani on October 13.

Matasi, who plays for St. George of Ethiopia, featured for the Harambee Stars at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) in Egypt and was involved in the recent friendly against Uganda in Nairobi last month.
