Benni McCarthy, Former Manchester United Player, Set to Be Announced as Kenya's New Coach

The Football Kenya Federation (FKF) is set to officially name Benni McCarthy as the Harambee Stars' new head coach, following Engin Firat. The 46-year-old former Manchester United coach will take over the Kenyan national team following a brief spell of temporary administration by Francis Kimanzi, Zedekiah "Zico" Otieno, and John Kamau.

McCarthy's hire represents a new beginning for Kenyan football, with many believing he can revitalize the club and lead them to greater success in African games. The former striker, known for his abilities and leadership, will have the difficult task of building a good squad for future international games, beginning with the Mapinduzi Cup in Zanzibar on January 3, 2025.

The Harambee Stars are in camp getting ready for the Mapinduzi Cup, which will take place in Zanzibar from January 3rd to January 13th, 2025.
