Harambee Stars head coach Engin Firat addresses a press conference at Two Rivers Mall in Nairobi on March 19, 2024 ahead of the Four Nations tournament set for Malawi.
Firat came back to Kenya on March 1 last year following the reinstatement of the disbanded FKF by Sports CS Ababu Namwamba on November 4, 2022
In the last three matches, goal-shy Stars have scored a whopping 12 goals
Midfielder Richard Odada, defender Daniel Anyembe, and winger Rooney Onyango are some of the players who have become an integral part of the team
Most Kenyans criticised the appointment of Engin Firat as Harambee Stars coach on September 19, 2021. This is because he had yet to register a single win as tactician of the Moldovan national team in the 11 matches he oversaw.
However, Football Kenya Federation (FKF) offered the 53-year-old Turk a two-month contract, to lead the team in their remaining four 2022 Fifa World Cup qualifiers after it parted ways with coach Jacob ‘Ghost’ Mulee.
