Match8 Apr 2028

Cruel end for Nairobi United as KCB pounce

There is no crueller way to lose a football match. KCB scored in the 93th minute, the restart barely happened, and the away end was still standing when the whistle went.

Squad10 Apr 2028

A day Francis Kahiro will not forget

3 goals in one game. The first was taken well, the second was taken greedily, and by the third the crowd were simply waiting for him to get the ball.

Market10 Apr 2028

Lefa Ngwenya asks to leave KCB

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Market10 Apr 2028

Only the photograph left for Fadhili Mwinyimvua

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Fadhili Mwinyimvua will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around KCB the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Match8 Apr 2028

Nobody wants to play KCB right now

3 wins in a row changes how opponents warm up: quieter, more glances across. Runs end, everybody knows that — but nobody in this dressing room is planning for it.

The dugout10 Apr 2028

Yafeesi Mubiru frozen out at KCB

This is not rotation. Yafeesi Mubiru has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at KCB is pretending otherwise.

Squad10 Apr 2028

Words exchanged at KCB

Kelvin Etemesi and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Match8 Apr 2028

KCB see off Nairobi United

Three points for KCB, 3‑2 the final word against Nairobi United in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Francis Kahiro was on a different afternoon to everybody else

9.45. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Match26 Jun 2027

Still nobody has beaten KCB

The unbeaten run reaches 13. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Market28 Jun 2027

Nashon Alembi asks to leave KCB

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Transfer targets28 Jun 2027

The paperwork begins on Lwandiso Radebe

A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. KCB have done the hard part with Mamelodi Sundowns, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Market28 Jun 2027

KCB get their man

The chase for Geordy Ndecket ended with $46.0K changing hands and Kenya Police out of reasons to say no. The supporters will judge the fee the only way that matters: on Saturdays.

Player ratings28 Jun 2027

Nobody could get near December Kisakah

Successful dribbles: 21. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Transfer targets28 Jun 2027

Orlando Pirates tell KCB: Samukelo Zikalala is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Squad28 Jun 2027

Words at KCB training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Clyde Senaji is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad28 Jun 2027

Kelvin Etemesi 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 KCB this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market28 Jun 2027

The Tyron Kariuki conversation is coming

Everyone has stopped pretending: Sofapaka will make the call about Tyron Kariuki this week. KCB have a number in mind, and the number is not shy.

Squad8 Mar 2027

98 days out for Arnold Matumele after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. KCB will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Squad8 Mar 2027

Luphumlo Sifumba 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 KCB this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

KCB see off Kenya Police

Three points for KCB, 2‑1 the final word against Kenya Police in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Stephen Etyang was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.07. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Squad8 Mar 2027

Luphumlo Sifumba has had enough of the bench

“I did not come here to warm up in front of people.” He is out of contract eventually, he is old enough to count the weeks, and KCB will have to give him a reason to stay or an exit.

Market8 Mar 2027

A long bet from KCB on Lyle Chatburn

He is 20, and nobody at KCB signed him for this season. Deals like this are judged in four years, by people who may not still be in the building.

Market8 Mar 2027

KCB buy the years ahead of Lefa Ngwenya

He is 20, and the scouting reports agree on the only line that matters: the ceiling. Signings like this are lottery tickets written by professionals.

Squad8 Mar 2027

Lyle Chatburn signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Lyle Chatburn commits to KCB for another 3 years.

The dugout8 Mar 2027

The view from the dugout

“We controlled it. There were spells I did not like and we will look at them, but the group showed me something.” Martin Mbugua, on a 2‑1 win that he was already picking apart on the walk to the press room.
