The Football Kenya Federation (FKF) has named an interim technical bench to take charge of Harambee Stars.
The national team is expected to hit camp on December 28 to begin preparations for the Mapinduzi Cup.
When will Mapinduzi Cup take place?
The tournament, which will be held in Zanzibar from January 3 to 15 in Zanzibar, is expected to help the team step up its preparations ahead of the Africa Nations Championships (CHAN). Kenya will co-host the February tournament alongside Uganda and Tanzania.
Harambee Stars' new technical bench
Following Engin Firat's resignation early this month, the position of head coach remained vacant, something FKF has now addressed. Former head coach Francis Kimanzi will return in a temporary capacity. Kimanzi will be assisted by John Kamau and Zedekiah Otieno.
