Kakamega Homeboyz chairman Cleophas Shimanyula has promised a clean sweep of trophies on offer in the new campaign after his side defeated Tusker 1-0 to lift the Mozzart Bet FKF Cup on Saturday.

The Kakamega-based outfit outwitted the Brewers in the final at Nyayo Stadium after Kevin Amwayi scored what turned out to be the winner in the 78th minute of the closely fought affair.

In the process, Abana Baingo clinched their first-ever silverware in the history of Kenyan football and earned a ticket to represent the country in the Caf Confederation Cup. Shimanyula has warned FKF Premier League rivals including Kenyan giants Gor Mahia and AFC Leopards they will have it rough next season.

“This is just a start of what to expect from Homeboyz next season,” said Shimanyula, adding: “We have sent a clear warning to our rivals to forget winning any trophies because next season, it will belong to Homeboyz, we will win the league, and retain the FKF Cup.”

He added: “Our success is based on our ambitions to rely on young players, we took our time and put trust in young upcoming players, and for some time now you can see most of the players in the squad, maybe apart from Robinson Kamura [who is the most experienced of all], are very young and hungry for success.

“We also put our trust in a local coach, Patrick Odhiambo is a very good coach [much better than foreigners at Gor and AFC], we gave him everything we could, we gave him a free hand to do his job, I don’t like interfering with any coach’s work and Odhiambo can attest to this, and you can see now the fruits of a team pulling together in one direction.”

While Homeboyz will represent Kenya in Confederation Cup, Gor Mahia will carry the flag in the Champions League after winning the league title with 70 points, one ahead of Tusker.
