There has been a shortage of strikers in the Kenyan Premier League (KPL) and Kenyan football at large in the recent past paving way for an influx of foreign players to the domestic league.

Though KPL has produced some clinical homegrown strikers in the past few years led by the in-form Kashiwa Resyol talisman Michael Olunga (Japan), Zesco United’s duo of Jesse Were and John Makwata (Zambia) alongside newly signed Napsa Stars forward Timothy Otieno, the effects of failing to develop players in the striking department is slowly but surely catching up with the country.
