On a heartwarming gesture, a group of Kenyans living in Sweden recently visited Eric Ouma, a Harambee Stars defender, at his residence in Sweden. The visit came after Ouma suffered a fibula fracture while training four weeks ago.
Ouma, who plays for Swedish top-tier side AIK Football, underwent a surgical operation and was later discharged to recover at home. The injury is expected to keep him out of action for at least two months.
Eric Ouma, 23, has been a key figure for Harambee Stars and was part of the national team that took part in the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt. He joined AIK in 2019 after an impressive season at Vasalunds IF, another Swedish side.
