For example, AFC Leopards head coach Tomas Trucha is resisting the temptation to make wholesome changes to his squad. In an interview, he stated that he has handed the club hierarchy a list of four players as he wants minimal tinkering with his squad.”I have been scouting and have given the management a list of players I want to sign. We want three or four players,” he said. “If our budget allows, they will sign them; otherwise, we will make do with the players we have and aim for third, fourth, or fifth place. However, fans may not be happy with that. But if management signs the players I want, we will compete for the league title.”Among the transfer moves expected to materialize early on in the window are Dennis Wanjala from Nairobi City Stars to Tusker FC and Kelwish Walubuka from Bidco United to AFC Leopards or Gor Mahia, among others.Brian ‘Rio’ Ochieng discloses KCB’s primary target next season after Mozzart Bet Cup loss
