Kenya's Rising Stars Backed to Go Far at AFCON U20 Despite Opening Morocco Blip
Morocco coach has backed Salim Babu' Rising Stars to do well against Tunisia and Nigeria to advance from group B of the ongoing U20 AFCON in Egypt.
Speculations have continued to link him to African heavyweights like South Africa’s Kaizer Chiefs and the reason for the growing interest in the 31-year-old runs deeper than just his impressive goal tally.
Olunga is still in red-hot form for Al Duhail in Qatar and here are three compelling reasons why African football giants are seriously considering breaking the bank for the towering striker — counting down from three to one.
3. A Symbol of Pan-African Potential and Inspiration
)
Investing in Michael Olunga goes beyond strengthening the squad; it's also about making a bold statement. Olunga represents the modern African footballer; globally aware, ambitious, and capable of competing at the highest levels.
Olunga's recent comments praising Qatar’s football infrastructure and its ability to attract talent underscore his belief in development as a cornerstone of success.
He recognizes that better facilities, consistent competition, and mentorship are essential for African nations to grow both domestically and internationally.
For clubs like Kaizer Chiefs, signing a player of Olunga’s stature would signal their intention to compete not only locally but also on the continental stage, including CAF competitions.
It would also set a powerful example for young African players, proving that talent nurtured on home soil can return to elevate African leagues.
2. Leadership and Experience at the Top Level
)
Olunga is not just a goal machine, he is a leader on and off the pitch. As the captain of Kenya’s national team, the Harambee Stars, Olunga has embraced the responsibility of inspiring younger players and carrying the expectations of a football-hungry nation.

Arne Slot Plays the Long Game as Liverpool Eyes Summer Reinforcements
Arne Slot hopes Liverpool’s title win and passionate fanbase will help attract top transfer targets ahead of next season.
Moreover, his experiences playing in different football cultures — from the J-League in Japan to the Qatar Stars League — have molded him into a complete forward with tactical awareness and emotional maturity. He understands the demands of top-flight football and has proven that he can deliver under pressure, as seen in his recent match-winning goal against Al Khor. Any African club serious about raising its competitive standards would benefit from Olunga’s maturity, professionalism, and influence in the locker room.
1. Elite Goal-Scoring Consistency
)
Olunga has built a reputation as one of Africa’s most reliable forwards, and his scoring statistics speak for themselves.
Since joining Al Duhail from Japan’s Kashiwa Reysol in 2021, he has found the back of the net with clinical precision.
In the 2021/22 season, he bagged 24 league goals, earning him the prestigious Mansour Muftah Award. Over the past two seasons, Olunga has scored more than 30 goals in just 40 league matches — a record few strikers on the continent can match.
His current campaign is equally impressive, having netted 13 goals in 22 appearances across all competitions.
