FKF Premier League side Kenya Police FC has parted ways with its entire technical bench, led by head coach Salim Babu, after just five rounds of league matches.This decision comes as the team struggles domestically, having secured only one win, three draws, and one loss, leaving them in 15th place on the league table.##NAJAVA_MECA_8511257##The move marks yet another reshuffle for the club, which has dismissed at least one coach each season since being promoted to the top flight in 2021. Babu, who had been with the team since the start of last season, is not the only casualty. Coach Anthony Kimani, who was co-opted to the technical bench to meet the CAF A License requirement, has also been let go. Additionally, goalkeeper coach Michael Manga and other junior members of the coaching and medical staff have been shown the door.The sweeping changes come as a shock, especially given that the team participated in the CAF Confederation Cup for the first time just two months ago, exiting in the second preliminary round after tough matches against Egyptian giants Zamalek SC.Mashemeji Derby in doubt as Sports Kenya announces unavailability of Nyayo StadiumDespite their historic qualification for continental football, Kenya Police FC’s domestic campaign has faltered this season, prompting the club’s board to make this drastic decision.The club has now entrusted the women’s team coach, Beldine Odemba, to guide the men’s team on an interim basis.

He initially joined as an assistant to Francis Baraza before taking over after Croatian coach Zdravko Logarusic’s sacking last December. Under Babu’s leadership, the team had a commendable finish last season, winning the Mozzart Bet Cup after defeating KCB in the final and finishing third in the league, which earned them a spot in the CAF Confederation Cup.However, despite these accomplishments, the club’s recent poor form in the FKF Premier League has led to this latest upheaval.Triple nominations for Kenya’s U-17 team at CAF awards
