Enock Masinza is a happy lad coming back to Kakamega Homeboyz FC after half a season in the cold. Featuring 10 times for Vihiga Bullets and amassing a record 7 assists plus a goal to boot, the left back, brother to Homeboyz forward Christopher Masinza, intends to make a huge difference in his second spell at Kakamega Homeboyz.He says the decision to drop to lowly rate Vihiga Bullets was a way for him to market himself before thrusting himself into the fore once again.”I didn’t have the best of spells at Homeboyz when I first came here and I hope to make a difference because I’ve learnt a lot at Bullets,” says the 19-year-old former Green Commandoes prodigy.”My background wasn’t great and Homeboyz had a lot of talent in position, so I had to push. Even though I didn’t get any playing time during my first spell, this second bite at the cherry must prove different. If my first leg stats are anything to go by, I’m ready to fight for playing time with the big boys,” he adds.##NAJAVA_MECA_7049299##Homeboyz finished second to Tusker last season in the FKF Premier League, despite leading a huge chunk of the way towards the season’s closure. The younger Masinza hints that he couldn’t earn a slot in the first team due to his unique playing style and once Homeboyz supremo watched him at Bullets, there was no question about bringing him back to the team. Olunga’s Duhail humiliated and dumped out of the AFC Champions League”I’ve already earned a place with the team during a friendly match last week where I scored a goal. The new technical bench has welcomed me and is happy with my performance. I think I’ve matured a lot from when I last was at Homeboyz,” continues the youngster.Homeboyz recently edged his former team Bullets, a result that springs them into the top half, but Enock is not content with the position. He recognises that the difference in points between Homeboyz and the top four teams is minimal given a whole fifteen matches to go.”If we play our cards right, who knows, we might just find ourselves in the top four with a few matches to play, so all is not lost,” he concludes.Kakamega Homeboyz stay in 8th position on the log, 12 points adrift of table-toppers Gor Mahia FC. The team opens second leg proceedings against Ulinzi Stars on 8th March.
