AFC Leopards winger Cliff Nyakeya is set to rejoin the team and could be available for selection when Ingwe take on FC Talanta in a league match at the Nyayo National Stadium on Wednesday afternoon.The winger missed Sunday’s league match against Kenya Police under unclear circumstances. In his absence, the team lacked that cutting edge upfront and, in the end, had to settle for a barren draw in the closely contested match.##NAJAVA_MECA_7171904##Asked of the player’s whereabouts after the match, coach Patrick Aussems said the player had an issue that he needed to sort out before he could be available for selection. The tactician refused to divulge the details of the seemingly big issue.”Nyakeya has an issue with the office, and he did not want to show up until his issue will be fixed,” Aussems said.Pressed further, the tactician pushed the matter to the club executive. That is something you will have to ask the office,” he added.Mozzart Sport reached out to club secretary general Gilbert Andugu to shed more light on the issue, and without disclosing what the matter was, it was revealed that the issue has since been resolved and that the player will train with the rest of the squad on Tuesday ahead of the game against Talanta.”There was a small matter that we have since handled. He will train with the rest of the team today ahead of tomorrow’s game,” Andugu said.Mozzart Sport understands the issue at hand, which touches on the player’s signing fee. The club has yet to pay him the money agreed upon before he renewed his contract last year.
