He took on the massive challenge of filling the boots left by the likes of Humphrey Mieno and Jackson Macharia and hasn’t disappointed.“It has been the product of working hard, and those are the rewards. It does not stop there because I know I need to work harder to ensure that I am constantly being called up,” Erambo noted.Looking ahead, Erambo hopes for a successful tenure at Tusker, as he aims to bag trophies next season.“I need to do better next season and elevate my performance. As a team, we also need to ensure we fight for those titles. It is a shame that we didn’t go home with any silverware this season, but we have to do better and win one, if not both,” Erambo further said.He added, “I want to urge the fans to keep on supporting us and coming to the games. We will not disappoint them.”Erambo’s growth highlights some of the players who have moved to the top-flight league from lower-tier sides and made a massive impression. It will be interesting to see how the rookie fares next season with the Brewers.##NAJAVA_MECA_8210017##
