In the just concluded season however, they struggled and eventually finished in the seventh position and Otanga believes fatigue played a part in the struggles.“We simply suffered from fatigue. We were tired after pushing the title contention up to the final day of the 2020/2021 season,” he added.KCB have already parted ways with five players.
