Mohammed Bajaber Reveals Why He Opted for Nairobi United Over Other Clubs

Harambee Stars forward Mohammed Bajaber has explained what encouraged him to choose Nairobi United as his next team.

Bajaber was unveiled this weekend by Naibois, joining the ambitious FKF Premier League club as a free agent, after his departure from Tanzanian giants Simba SC.

The playmaker adds experience and quality to Patrick Aussems’ team, who are looking to fight for the league title, and he says the club’s ambition and the vision laid out to him by the coach were attractive.

“This club has a lot of ambition and I was just listening to the project from the chairman and CEO and they really want to achieve greatness and I want to be part of that,” he said during an interview with the club.

“It was an easy decision to say yes and may we have a lot of success. The project and talking to the coach; he really had a good influence on me choosing Nairobi United. They have a vision for me and club and it was very easy to say yes.”

Bajaber is hoping that his experience as a league winner with Kenya Police FC in 2025 can rub off on the rest of the team even as he looks to add goals and assists to the side.

“I bring goals, assists and composure in the final third and chance creation,” he added. “As well as experience, because I have won a league before and we have the team to win the league this season.”

Nairobi United started the season with back-to-back draws against KCB and Shabana FC and will be looking for their first win of the campaign when they take on APs Bomet on Sunday.
