We have trained together with the rest of the players and I feel welcomed. I hope that I will continue performing well for the club and I look forward to an exciting season,” said Luvanda.His counterpart Omondi noted that the move shows that his career is on an upward trajectory and is prepared for the competition for numbers with Tusker having a huge pool of players to select. “This is a huge leap in my career and I look forward to the challenge. Of course, this is a bigger platform and it calls for more work. I know the competition will be tough but I am prepared to do my best to earn a regular playing slot,” he said.
