Harambee Stars midfielder Anthony Akumu says he is not coming to "prove anything to anyone" if he gets a chance to play against Zambia in an international friendly scheduled for Friday.
The lanky Kaizer Chiefs midfielder was controversially omitted from the team that played in the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations played in Egypt.
With the absence of captain Victor Wanyama and Johanna Omollo for Friday's match, many see this as an opportunity for the player to prove his worth, but he has stated it is not the case.
