Kenya's Harambee Stars are preparing for an international friendly match against Uganda Cranes, with the two teams set to face off on Sunday at the MISC Kasarani.
As of Tuesday, all players had reported to the team's camp at the Moi International Sports Centre in Kasarani, except for China-based winger Ayub Timbe, who plays for Beijing Reinhe.
Timbe is expected to join the team's camp today, with the team's head coach Francis Kimanzi saying it will be a good test for the new call-ups, including Bandari's Brian Otieno and Wazito's Johnstone Omurwa.
Kenya's head coach Francis Kimanzi has ruled out the possibility of having midfielder Victor Wanyama and Johanna Omollo, as well as Joseph Okumu, who is still settling in Sweden after joining IF Elfsborg.
Uganda Cranes, under caretaker coach Abdallah Mubiru, will be hitting camp tomorrow at the Startime Stadium before jetting out the same evening en route to Nairobi.
Ranked at 80 by FIFA, the Cranes are seen as the favourites in the tie, with Kenya ranked at 107.
