AFC Leopards interim coach Fred Ambani has expressed concerns over his misfiring strikers and is urging his forwards to step up and deliver goals for the team.Sydney Lokale is currently the club’s top scorer with just four goals, and Ambani believes the team’s struggles to find the back of the net is hindering their pursuit of the elusive league title.##NAJAVA_MECA_8720390##The situation has been worsened by the recent departure of striker Arthur Gitego and the imminent exit of Luke Namanda, who is set to join Tusker FC, leaving Ambani with even fewer options upfront.The former AFC Leopards striker acknowledged the lack of goals as a serious issue and called on his attackers to rediscover their scoring form.”We need to step up. When our top scorer has four goals, and the leading scorer in the league has 15, it’s concerning. I have to help these players regain their form,” Ambani told Nation Sport.Dundee United reveal why Harambee Stars midfielder was loaned to Serbian clubLeopards were held to a 0-0 draw by Sofapaka FC at Dandora Stadium on Wednesday, extending their winless streak against Batoto ba Mungu to five years.Ambani was unimpressed by his team’s performance, citing fatigue from their previous match at Awendo Stadium as a key factor in the lacklustre display as he also pointed out another area of concern.”The game wasn’t as fluid as we wanted, partly due to fatigue.
