Great Footballers in Kenya

Kenya is one of the countries with best footballers in the world. Some of them make to the top clubs while others remain unnoticed until they despair and stop practicing. This is how many talents get spoiled in the country. The responsibility to manage many sport centers is granted to individuals who have got no interest in the sport. They consider it as a job instead of helping the young talents to make it to the top positions. They drop many good footballers and add others in the team who are not as good as the dropped ones for the sake of money. We have lost hope in many of our local coaches and imported expertise from other countries which is costing us dearly. It is not that the coaches we have cannot do what the foreign ones do, only that we have lost hope in them. Tribalism in the football sector is consuming the country down in the international soccer ranking. I thank the government for having the plan to sponsor football academies since it was so expensive to join one before. They will provide a good chance for coaches to select players and even send some of the players who are not performing well in the national team to the academies. I say big up to our government and please try hard to clear the tribalism and corruption in the sector. I have big dreams for my country.
