FOOTBALL Simba mulling on Gor Mahia friendly as part of CAF Champions League preparations
The Wekundu wa Msimbazi plan to hold their 2023/2024 CAF Champions League first-round preparations in Kenya.
Ingwe, who signed 17 new players after their transfer ban was finally lifted in mid-August, played like a team that is still yet to gel on Sunday as they were held to a 0-0 draw by FC Talanta at the Nyayo National Stadium in the opening weekend.
Tom Juma’s charges also struggled to create a lot of open-play chances against the Ken Kenyatta-coached outfit, and it was even more concerning that they could not find a way to score after Talanta were reduced to ten men early in the second half.

They will be hoping to make amends this week, although they will be facing a KCB side that was resolute defensively under previous head coach Zedekiah Zico Otieno and are set to stay that way under Benard Mwalala, who is known to set up his side to be very compact.
However, KCB are yet to play as Kakamega Homeboyz, the side they were set to face in the opening match of the season, were away on continental duty in Libya, where they were drubbed 4-1 by Al Hilal Benghazi.
