Financially struggling AFC Leopards got a reprieve after Kenyan Premier League (KPL) lent the club Sh2million last Friday to enable it pay outstanding bills. Leopards will refund the money once they receive their sponsorship funds from Mumias Sugar. This gesture came in handy for the team as it helps end player boycott at the club. “As a governing council, we care for the welfare of all our members and importantly, we don’t want Leopards to leave the stable,” said a KPL official, who attended Friday’s meeting. This is the first time KPL is lending money to one of its members who is experiencing financial difficulties.
