Match26 Aug 2026

Nairobi United bow out of the cup

AFC Leopards go through and Nairobi United go home, 0‑1 the scoreline that did it. The dressing room will call the league the priority now, because that is what dressing rooms say.

The terraces31 Aug 2026

The ground has had enough

“We travel everywhere and we get this.” 10 of the 29 senior players heard it walking off, and the ones who did not hear it were not playing.

Market31 Aug 2026

Brian Omondi puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Nairobi United, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Nairobi United

Yusuf Mainge was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match29 Aug 2026

Nairobi United come up short against Muranga Seal

Muranga Seal left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Yusuf Mainge gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Nairobi United pick somebody else ahead of Frank Ouya

There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.

Market31 Aug 2026

Ernest Mohammed placed on the list

Nairobi United have made Ernest Mohammed available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.

Player ratings31 Aug 2026

Frank Ouya runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 13. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Match19 Aug 2026

Michael Karamor sends Nairobi United through

Cup ties wait for somebody to seize them, and Michael Karamor obliged against Gor Mahia. 4‑3 on the night, and the name in the next round’s hat is Nairobi United.

Match19 Aug 2026

Michael Karamor drives the Nairobi United comeback

2 behind and going nowhere, until Michael Karamor decided otherwise. Gor Mahia had done the hard part and then watched it come apart, and the noise at the final whistle was the sort a ground keeps.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

Both of them Michael Karamor's — 8.13

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.13, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Market24 Aug 2026

Lennox Ogutu puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Nairobi United, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market24 Aug 2026

Nairobi United turn down Afrique Foot Elite for Brian Omondi

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Match22 Aug 2026

Still nobody has beaten Nairobi United

The unbeaten run reaches 6. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Squad24 Aug 2026

Yusuf Mainge falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Player ratings24 Aug 2026

One of those days for Ovella Ochieng

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.14, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Squad24 Aug 2026

The manager makes an example of Wellington Ochieng

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Bernard Jairo is the hero from the spot

A shoot-out is remembered by its ending, and this one ends with Bernard Jairo: 4 kept out, and a set of supporters who will describe every one of them for the next twenty years.

Match12 Aug 2026

Cup progress for Nairobi United

A 0‑0 win over APS Bomet, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

Match15 Aug 2026

Brian Omondi breaks Kariobangi Sharks hearts

Some goals win a match and some take one off somebody else. Brian Omondi scored in the 87th minute, Kariobangi Sharks had already begun thinking about the journey home, and Nairobi United took the lot.

Market17 Aug 2026

Nairobi United say no — this time

The offer from US Bougouni for Wellington Ochieng was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Squad17 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Nairobi United

Yusuf Mainge was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Match15 Aug 2026

Brian Omondi the difference as Nairobi United beat Kariobangi Sharks

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Brian Omondi. 2‑1 against Kariobangi Sharks, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

David Wafula shuts the door

Defensive actions: 19, and a clean sheet at the end of it. A centre-half's best afternoons look like nothing happening, which is precisely the point.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Ninety minutes of Brian Omondi at his very best

Marked 8.17. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Nairobi United.

Squad17 Aug 2026

John Otieno gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Benson Omalla stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Benson Omalla and Nairobi United agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Prince Buregeya in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Nairobi United this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market3 Aug 2026

Eyes on Shafic Ssebyala again

The phone has started ringing about Shafic Ssebyala again, and this time the name on the line is Kariobangi Sharks. Nairobi United are listening politely and promising nothing.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Yusuf Mainge falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad3 Aug 2026

The manager makes an example of Benson Omalla

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Market3 Aug 2026

Frank Ouya told to find a new club

“They were honest with me, and I would rather know.” Frank Ouya has been informed he is not in the manager's thinking at Nairobi United.

Market3 Aug 2026

The clock runs on Ernest Mohammed's contract

49 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

Match1 Aug 2026

Honours even between Nairobi United and KCB

1‑1, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

Market3 Aug 2026

Talks stall between Nairobi United and Roy Okal

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.
