Mulee sacked as Harambee Stars coach on mutual agreement

Jacob ‘Ghost’ Mulee and Football Kenya Federation have agreed to part ways, relieving the tactician of his duties as Harambee Stars head coach.

FKF, in a statement by CEO Barry Otieno, said that Mulee, his assistant Twahir Muhidin and goalkeeping coach Haggai Azande had “reached a decision to part ways by mutual consent, effective immediately”.

Assistant coaches Ken Odhiambo and William Muluya will remain in the team as the federation works to reconstruct the Harambee Stars technical bench, ahead of the 2022 Qatar World Cup qualifiers against Mali, on 6^th and 12^th October.

“FKF is immensely grateful to Coach Mulee and his departing members of staff for their dedicated service and workmanship. The federation wishes them all the best in their future endeavors,” read the statement.

Mulee was appointed in October 2020 to spearhead Kenya’s qualification for the 2022 Africa Cup of Nations and the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. He failed in the bid for Cameroon 2022 and started catastrophically in the Qatar 2022 campaign, with draws against Uganda and Rwanda.

He mustered just three wins in six matches.
