Ingwe close in on 2 foreign forwards

Leopards

AFC Leopards are set to complete the signing of two forwards from Tanzania.

Addressing Nation Sport on Wednesday, Leopards Organizing Secretary Timothy Lilumbi affirmed that the club had snapped Simba SC reserve striker Marcel Kaheza on loan.

Kaheza joins Ingwe where he is relied upon to amplify their attacking options.

Congolese striker Wai Yeka is likewise in the nation ahead of a potential move to the Leopards’ camp.

The forward is set to sign a two-year contract.

“These are quality players and our hope is that they settle in quickly,” said Lilumbi.

“We have a problem with our strike force which seems blunt. From here, I don’t believe we will add any players, we are now thinking of reducing the squad.”

Chingwe have only scored once in two KPL matches in the 2018/19 season.

Their next league match is away to Sofapaka in Machakos this weekend.
