Burkina Faso will depend on players such as Kylian Nikiema, Edmond Tapsoba, Nasser Djiga, Mohamed Ouedraogo, Issa Kabore, Steeve Yago and Ibrahim Blati.
Experienced international defender Aboud Omar has bullishly declared Harambee Stars are in Zanzibar fully intent on winning the annual Mapinduzi Cup.
“Everybody at home is focusing on Chan (African Nation Champions) but we must first win Mapinduzi Cup as part of our broader ambition to excel in Africa. We are treating Mapinduzi Cup as a test ahead of the continental competition, and we are here to win it,” said the Kenya Police left back Friday.
