Harambee Stars need support of local clubs

Harambee Stars [Jonah Onyango, Standard]

It has been an active week for the national football team Harambee Stars. Last weekend, the team played two build-up matches against Swaziland and Equatorial Guinea. This coming weekend, Harambee Stars will be in India for a four-nation tournament featuring New Zealand, India and Chinese Taipei.

Despite the national team’s need for international exposure, it is regrettable that some premier league clubs have chosen to withdraw their best players from the national team's squad headed to India.
