Okwemba’s Squad Offers Support to Struggling AFC Leopards

AFC Leopards legend Charles Okwemba has advised the team to plan ahead of time and start strong in the league if they want to win the championship next season.

Ingwe’s title drought has lasted more than two decades, despite promises to challenge for the trophy at the start of each term, and for Okwemba, a shift in tactics should be the key to fighting for the title.

“Leopards have had a lot of challenges because for a team to be able to compete we must first of all have stability, a strong start to the season and also a good plan if we want to win the league title.

A good start will always be helpful to any team,” said the soft-spoken Okwemba.

Okwemba also emphasised the need for the club to have continuity in its playing unit, if they are to integrate and perform well.

“…if you lose a lot of players it affects the team immensely regardless of how you deal with it.

Look at Gor Mahia. They are never losing players season in season out like we do.”

He went on: “It’s only a matter of tweaking a bit, bolstering a few players to strengthen the team for success and not doing it like you are overhauling it. This is why Gor Mahia are winning the league frequently unlike us (AFC Leopards).”

Leopards are sixth on 44 points, 19 points behind leaders Gor Mahia, with five matches remaining.

The huge cats are in the FKF Cup semi-final against Kenya Police FC on May 24, and they hope to defeat them and advance to the final against the winner of the KCB-Kariobangi Sharks match.

This is their sole chance for silverware this season and a wonderful opportunity to return to continental football (CAF Confederations Cup) for the first time since 2018.
