Bidco United will remain inactive during the mid-season transfer window, as confirmed by coach Anthony Akhulia.The Thika-based club currently holds the 7th position in the FKF Premier League standings with 24 points after 16 games, marking a season of mixed results for Akhulia’s team.##NAJAVA_MECA_7760810##As the mid-season transfer window is scheduled to open on January 8th, just two days after the league resumes, Akhulia expressed his satisfaction with the existing squad and stated that he has no plans to reinforce it. “I do not think that we will be making any signings in January. I am content with the players at my disposal, and I don’t see if we will bring in more players,” he affirmed.The team has received a significant boost with the return of some players from long-term injuries. Akhulia, who also serves as the Kenya U18 assistant coach, views their comeback as equivalent to new signings.”We have players coming back from injury, and they are going to give us that punch in the second leg. Emmanuel (Mogaka), Chieta (Nelson), and Juma (Henry) are all coming back from long-term injuries, and for us, these are like new signings. I think they will make us stronger for the second leg.”AFC Leopards out to defend the Lidonde Cup as Mulembe comes knockingReflecting on the team’s overall performance this season, the coach acknowledged both successes and areas for improvement.”I think we have done well overall, although there are games that we should have performed better in. We dropped points in some matches that we should have won easily, but that’s football; it happens sometimes.”He shared the team’s preseason goal of reaching at least 30 points in the first 17 games and noted that, after 16 games, they have accumulated 24 points. Looking ahead, Akhulia expressed optimism, stating,”If we win our next game, we will get to 27, which is three shy of our target. It’s not what we wanted, but it’s our highest-ever tally since we got promoted, and I think we can sit back and say we have done well.”Bidco United is scheduled to face Sofapaka when the league resumes.Breaking: Bandari to miss Mapinduzi Cup
