The Football Kenya Federation (FKF) has confirmed the new Kenyan Premier League (KPL) season for the 2020-21 campaign will likely start in October.
The Kenyan top-flight took a break in mid-March owing to the outbreak of the coronavirus pandemic and it was later prematurely ended bythe FKF after the pandemic continued to surge, and thus awarded Gor Mahia the title.
On the same breath, the FKF also moved to promote Nairobi City Stars and Bidco United from the lower tier to the top-flight.
