Police FC throw jibes at Ulinzi with Harambee Stars 'ball boys' tag
Football Kenya Federation Premier League (FKFPL) side Kenya Police FC took a jibe against their opponents Ulinzi Stars over the composition of Harambee Stars.
Police are the most represented side in the Harambee Stars squad named by head coach Engin Firat, while Ulinzi do not have a single player.
While congratulating their players on the national team call-ups, the Law Enforcers described Ulinzi as the ‘ball boys’.
None of the Police players have been dropped even after Firat named his final squad for the Iran friendly. The match has been scheduled to take place on Tuesday, March 28.
A recent Police signing from Tusker, Patrick Matasi, has retained his slot in the final squad, along with Aboud Omar, Duke Abuya, Alvin Mang'eni, and Elvis Rupia.
