Wazito FC head coach Fred Ambani has backed rookie forward Eric Otieno to become a great player in the future.Otieno, who joined Wazito in January 2021 from Nzoia Sugar has been a bit-part player both under former coach Francis Kimanzi and Ambani. He has seen more playtime under Ambani but majorly off the bench.##NAJAVA_MECA_6454010##He was named in the starting XI in the last two games. In the match between Wazito and Posta Rangers he found the back of the net and was subsequently named in the starting XI in the game against Vihiga Bullets only for the opponents to issue a walkover.Despite the peripheral role that he is playing in the team at the moment, Ambani says he has full confidence in the former KCB and Nzoia man and he believes that the attacker will get better with time.Our opponents are nowhere to be seen. We get the three points and two goals.#FKFPL pic.twitter.com/TDtE6xZ8Dw— Wazito Football Club (@wazitofc) June 12, 2022 “Eric is young and we have to develop him to become a great striker. There are games that he started and he was not doing well and that is why Wise (Michael Owino) has been starting in most of our matches. But off the bench he has been making some good impact, against Posta Rangers we started him and he got a goal and I am confident that he will becoming a great forward if he keeps learning and growing,” he stated.Wazito finished in 16th position in the league meaning they will have to go through the FKF Premier League-National Super League playoff to secure their top-flight status. They will play the team that will finish third in the National Super League this season.
