Gor Mahia’s midfielder Kenneth Muguna has his eyes set on nothing but victory when they face off with AFC Leopards in a Mashemeji derby FKF Cup final on Sunday.He acknowledges that by virtue of being a derby, the final will be a tough fixture. “This (Derby) is everything to me. I can’t imagine not having a hand on that trophy considering how far we have come from. On Sunday, I will bring everything I got and I know my teammates too will be ready for the occasion. It will be a tough match, but I am ready to die for this trophy,” Muguna said.Finally at the top 8th🎯 pic.twitter.com/yNvAZ9L4Pg— Kenneth Muguna Mugambi (@KennethMuguna10) June 20, 2021 Gor Mahia will be seeking to win a trophy that has eluded them since 2012 where they beat Sofapaka in the final, after seeing off AFC Leopards in the semifinal.There have been numerous changes to the venue for this clash, initially set to be played at Ruaraka Grounds before being moved to Utalii Grounds and has been shifted again to Nyayo National Stadium at the same time.The winner in this competition will take home Ksh 2 Million as well as the chance to represent the country in next season’s edition of CAF Confederation Cup.However, the participation of both teams (AFC and Gor) in the continental showpiece hangs in the balance following CAF’s directive that “clubs who are participating in CAF Men’s and Women’s Interclubs Competitions 2021/22 season (Licensees) must ensure that they do not have any open cases of overdue payables”The FKF CUP final pitting AFC Leopards against Gor Mahia will now be played at the Nyayo National Stadium.Sports Kenya has given a go ahead for the Sunday final to be staged at the revamped facility.#FKFCUP pic.twitter.com/JTVwAsF49k— Ole Teya (@Kevin_teya) July 2, 2021 With the directive from CAF, Gor Mahia are in trouble for failing to honour their contractual agreements with Ugandan Shafik Batambuze and Tanzanian winger Dickson Ambundo while Ingwe have been reported to FIFA over the same by former coach Casa Mbungo and Vincent Habamahoro. The two clubs could risk missing out on CAF Confederation Cup even if they win the FKF Cup on Sunday unless they clear the dues.
