AFC Leopards boss Fred Ambani has been crowned Sports Journalists Association of Kenya (SJAK)/Betika Coach of the Month for December, recognising his role in AFC Ingwe's surge to the FKF-Premier League summit after 14 rounds of the 2025-2026 campaign.

Under Ambani's guidance, Leopards collected three wins and a draw in December. The month featured a headline-making Mashemeji Derby upset, with Leopards beating Gor Mahia 1-0 to claim bragging rights in Kenya's fiercest football rivalry. Other notable results included a 2-1 victory over Ulinzi Stars and a 1-0 win against Bidco United. Leopards' only setback in the period came in a 0-0 stalemate with defending champions Kenya Police.
