A fracture rules Victor Mbaoma out for 53 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Tusker will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Market30 Aug 2027

Terms done: Edwin Simiyu is going

Fee agreed, wages agreed, and Sofapaka waiting with a shirt. Nobody at Tusker is pretending otherwise, and the supporters have stopped asking whether and started asking when.

Market30 Aug 2027

Brandon Obiero asks to leave Tusker

“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.

Match28 Aug 2027

7 unbeaten for Tusker

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 7 matches without defeat is a foundation Tusker did not have in the autumn.

Pius Igwe 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 Tusker this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Door shut on Douglas Ochoko

Tusker asked and Sofapaka said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match28 Aug 2027

Kenya Police snatch it back from Tusker

A goal on 87 minutes turned three points into one and a good afternoon into an argument about game management that will run until Saturday.

Tusker count the cost of losing Patrick Okoth

21 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Squad30 Aug 2027

Cliff Oruko 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.

Squad2 Aug 2027

82 days out for Victor Mbaoma after a fracture

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

Player ratings2 Aug 2027

Ronny Otieno beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 26. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Brandon Obiero 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 Tusker, and it is not being withdrawn.

The dugout2 Aug 2027

Edwin Simiyu says Tusker went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Transfer targets2 Aug 2027

Mthobisi Zondo is a medical away from Tusker

The deal with Maritzburg United is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Pius Igwe 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 Tusker this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Transfer targets2 Aug 2027

Tusker rebuffed over Dalphine Omuri

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Shabana have kept their man, and Tusker go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Match31 Jul 2027

Tusker see off Mara Sugar

Three points for Tusker, 1‑0 the final word against Mara Sugar in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Abud Omar 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.
