Football Kenya Federation (FKF) is taking steps to help Kenyan players from the vagaries of the coronavirus pandemic.
In a communiqué to media houses on Tuesday 21 April, the federation called on clubs featuring in the Kenyan Premier League, Women Premier League, National Super League, and men and women’s Division One Leagues to furnish it with lists of their 30 members as it explores the options available to assist.
The federation noted that the list should include five officials and 25 players, as advised by the Ministry of sports, which the federation approached for the same.
“Football has taken a big hit from this Covid-19 issue; players are not training, sponsors are not operational, there’s no football at all in our fields, some of which have now been converted to hospitals.
“As a result, FKF is talking to various partners including the government, FIFA, sponsors on how we can help our stakeholders, like players coaches, full time referees and more.
“We do not have their database at the moment and that is why this information is crucial. We will be methodical in distributing whatever we get,” he added.
