National soccer team Harambee Stars coach Engin Firat has named the traveling squad for the 2022 Fifa World Cup qualifier against Mali in Morocco.

Coach Firat has dropped some nine players from his squad ahead of World Cup qualifiers against Mali.

Dropped players include; James Saruni, Samuel Olwande, Frank Odhiambo, Patillah Omoto, Musa Masika, Keegan Ndemi, Reagan Otieno, Ovella Ochieng and Sydney Lokale.

Firat will be on the touchline for the first time after taking over the Harambee Stars coaching role in September following the sacking of Jacob Mulee.

Stars leave for Morocco on Monday evening ahead of their match against Les Aigles on Thursday, 7th October.

Travelling Squad:

Goalkeepers

Ian Otieno, Brian Bwire, Faruk Shikhalo
