The forward, who joined the club back in 2019 from Vihiga United, was nurtured by coach Nicholas Muyoti and has played under Bernard Mwalala, John Baraza and now Patrick Odhiambo. He admits to his best season coming in the 2019/20 campaign.‘’I personally elect to remember the season preceding Covid-19 as our best performance ever. We were well on our way to winning the league title and I was also scoring at will for the team,’’ he said.‘’The were some other two great seasons to follow and I fondly remember them too. I’m pleased with the status Homeboyz enjoys now as a powerhouse because of the teamwork we fostered within amongst players and the technical bench.’’##NAJAVA_MECA_7055768##He, however is coy on his next station but admits to a few offers being tabled.Coincidentally, as he leaves the club, his younger brother Enock Masinza – a lethal left-back with a history at the prestigious Green Commandos team – joins from Vihiga Bullets FCHomeboyz finished last season second on the log after being denied the title on the final day of the season and in the 2021 campaign managed a top six finish.##NAJAVA_MECA_7055768##This season, with pressure mounting on the team to replicate their most recent performances, the current squad couldn’t live up to the hype and gave a dismal 8th place finish in the first leg- complete with an entire technical bench overhaul.Currently handled by Odhiambo, Ibrahim Shikanda and Jeffers Odongo, the trio have managed one win and a draw from their first two matches.
