Kakamega Homeboyz Team Manager Boniface Imbenzi is thrilled to see his players; striker Enock Masinza and goalkeeper Ibrahim Wanzala make the final squad of Rising, which expected to play international friendlies in Malawi.

Masinza, Wanzala and winger Oliver Majak were named in the Salim Babu’s provisional squad before the latter was released due to issues with his travel documents

"Yes, we got call-ups of defender Enock Masinza, goalkeeper Ibrahim Wanzala and striker Oliver Majak into the Rising Stars provisional squad. Masinza and Wanzala made the final squad while Majak couldn't because of issues to do with his travel documents," Imbenzi said.

Majak has already joined his Homeboyz teammates in training after the team returned from a one-week break.

"The team was away for a one week break thanks to the international break. They resumed training yesterday and I believe that we are ready to keep going in our remaining matches.

“We are happy to have three of our players called up to the Kenya U-20 squad even although one OF them had to drop. It conforms we are getting it right in player development," Imbenzi added.

Homeboyz are seventh on 37 points, 13 behind leaders Gor Mahia.

The Kakamega-based team beat Ulinzi Stars 2-0 in their last fixture at Mumias Sports Complex.

They are set to face Tusker FC in the FKF Cup quarter final match in their next fixture.
