FKF Premier League champions Gor Mahia and FKF Cup winners Kenya Police FC have been drawn against El Merreikh FC Bentiu of South Sudan and Ethiopian Coffee respectively in the CAF inter-club competitions set to kick off next month.
Record league champions Gor Mahia will launch their return to the continental football against El Merreikh FC Bentiu in the first preliminary round of the Champions League between August 16 and 18.
The Law enforcers, who are making their first ever appearance at the continental stage, will start their campaign away to Ethiopia Coffee.
K’Ogalo, who were blocked from participating in the continental inter-club competitions for failing to meet club licensing requirements, will meet reigning champions and Egyptian powerhouses Al Ahly in the final round of qualification for the group stages.
Should Police FC sail through they will book a date with Confederation Cup defending champions Zamalek of Egypt. Gor Mahia will travel away in Juba for first leg while Police FC will start their life in continental football in Ethiopia.
