KCB have strengthened their squad with three new signings from lower leagues to boost their performance in the FKF Premier League.

FKF Premier League side KCB FC have officially announced the acquisition of three new players during the ongoing mid-season transfer window.

The first of the trio Vincent Ondabu joins from Equity Bank FC, a team competing in the FKF Division One.

A talented winger, Ondabu's impressive skills and experience, which includes a stint at 3K FC, are expected to add a new dimension to KCB's attacking play.

Shadrack Simiyu, the second signing, is a promising striker formerly with Compel FC.

Simiyu has an impressive record, leading the scorers' chart in the FKF Division One – Zone B league with nine goals.

His performance in the Cleo Malalah Super Cup was particularly noteworthy, where he emerged as the top scorer with 13 goals.

In their statement, KCB expressed their excitement: “Happy to announce that we have acquired the services of Shadrack Wamalwa Simiyu. The 21-year-old's scoring prowess is something we eagerly anticipate to see in our upcoming matches.”

The third signing, 19-year-old Lameck Luhangala, a center back from The Scorpions Musingu, is known for his robust defending skills.

KCB highlighted the potential they see in Luhangala: “Lameck Luhangala joins us on a two-year deal, bringing youth and vitality to our defense. His performances have been consistently impressive, and we believe he will be a key asset to our team.”

This strategic reinforcement comes at a crucial time for KCB, currently positioned seventh in the league with 27 points after 17 games, trailing ten points behind the leaders, Gor Mahia.

The integration of the trio is expected to inject new energy into the team, possibly giving them the boost needed to contend for the title.

The newcomers are expected to make their debut in the upcoming match against Ulinzi Stars.
