The new signing sustained a shin fracture. “We’ve had a slow start but it’s not something strange in football, it happens. We are happy with the development but the only setback is when you have injuries that derail you like in the case of our goalkeeper (Mustapha Oduor). We thought we got it right with him but now we have to go and build again with the keepers we have. When you talk about 6-8 months, that’s the whole season and it is a blow. But he is young enough and we are confident that he will be back,” he stated.
