Kenyan Premier League (KPL) will take legal action to stop any attempts to engage a new television deal to replace South Africa’s SuperSport.

The company has also clarified that it tabled the contracts it has entered with all partners during a meeting with Fifa officials on Tuesday, but admitted that due to ‘confidentiality clauses’ did not allow them to be copied or taken away.
