Amwayi targeting quick return to action

Kakamega Homeboyz midfielder Kevin Amwayi is hoping to put an end to his unending injury setbacks and get back to action before the season closes.Amwayi joined Homeboyz midway through the previous season after nearly four seasons in the cold, becoming a key figure in the Abana Beingo squad. The skillful left-footed forward marked his return to top-flight football, inspiring the Patrick Odhiambo-managed side to their first major silverware. Kenya U20 coach Babu confident ahead of Malawi tournamentAmwayi scored the lone goal during last year’s Mozzart Bet Cup finals held on June 1, 2023, to defeat Tusker FC 1-0 at Kasarani Stadium. However, his first full campaign with the Kakamega-based outfit has not been a rosy one for the midfielder, who has experienced play interruptions due to endless injuries. The ex-military officer has been missing from action for the past month, with his last appearance being in Homeboyz’ goalless draw with AFC Leopards. The midfielder made a second-half appearance during the Leopards match, where he sustained an ankle fracture on his left foot, and is expected to resume training in a month. Until being sidelined, the former Harambee Stars winger has made four goal contributions to his name, providing an assist in Homeboyz’s 5-0 drabbing of Sofapaka, a 2-1 triumph over Tusker, and a six-goal thriller in a 3-3 draw with FC Talanta. ##NAJAVA_MECA_7959102##Despite the recent setback, Amwayi has expressed optimism for a complete recovery and playing a part in Homeboyz’s remaining matches before the season closes. “I have had a challenging season, missing most of the matches due to injury setbacks, but I am hopeful to soon reunite with the rest of the playing unit and play a role in the remaining fixtures of the campaign,” stated Amwayi. Should Homeboyz beat last year’s finalist Tusker in the round 16 fixture of this year’s Mozzart Bet Cup competition, the quick-footed winger will be hoping to recover in time and guide the Mozzart Bet-sponsored team in defending their Cup. “I am a month away from kicking the ball. I am confident I will be fully fit in about five weeks, and hopefully by then, if we get to proceed past Tusker, then I will be glad to join the rest of the team and help in defending our trophy,” he added. Harambee Stars hit camp ahead of four nation tournament
