FKF-PL full transfers: Vihiga Bullets sign 19 new players as survival fight looms

The FKF Premier League strugglers Vihiga Bullets were top among the most active teams in the mid-season transfer window which ended on March 27.

The published list of the league’s incoming and outgoing transfers indicate Bullets signed 19 new players to boost their top-tier survival bid.

Sofapaka FC who sit eleventh on the league standings recorded second most incoming transfers with 15 players joining the Batoto ba Mungu.

AFC Leopards were the only team not involved in any transfer business as they are currently serving a two-season FIFA ban.

According to the Bullets interim head coach Milton Kidiga, the club had lost almost everybody due to the financial difficulties they are going through, hence the need to replace them by going to the market.

“According to our situation we lost a lot of players to the extent that we remained with only 10. This forced us to look for other players who would come in to replace them,” Kidiga said.

For Leopards, it has been very quiet in the den since the club is still serving the FIFA transfer ban for two consecutive seasons.

Following the lifting of Gor Mahia’s FIFA ban last week, the record champions snapped up eight players from Kakamega Homeboyz, Kitara FC (Uganda), URA FC (Uganda), Saif Sporting Club (Bangladesh), and Bongonaya FC.

They also promoted three players from their youth program.

Wazito FC signed 13 players and released eight while Mathare United managed to rope in 12 new players.

Police FC did sign four to replace the four who left while Kakamega Homeboyz signed 12 and saw 11 leave the club with Bandari bringing five on board after losing three.

Second placed Nzoia Sugar signed James Kibande on loan from Kenya Police to replace Feliian Okanda who joined Kakamega Homeboyz.
