Though young, he has already shown good professionalism and character as evidenced by how he has already blended in well with the rest of the squad. We now expect him to translate what we have seen on the pitch to the premier league platform.” Muyoti is quoted as saying on the club’s portal.Bajaber is described as a creative number 10 who can also be deployed as a number 8 and can use either foot and is expected to add a new dimension to City Stars attack.Mohamed Bajaber has joined Nairobi City Stars #FKFPLTransfers https://t.co/8AM0XpqaEj pic.twitter.com/Px7a3cDfib— Jeff Kinyanjui (@Nyash88) February 4, 2022 According to sources close to the player, Midtjylland were not actively looking for a number 10 and suggested the players to a number of teams who are still interested in their services but want game time under his belt.The midfielder comes from a sporting family and follows in the footsteps of his father Omar Ali Bajaber who featured for coastal-based Black Panthers in the 1979 Football Kenyan League while his brother hosts Homeboyz Radio’s Sports Show Fan Zone.
