Akumu: What can Kaizer Chiefs expect from Kenya star?

Goal examines what the Harambee Stars midfielder will bring to the Amakhosi after sealing a three-year deal

Anthony ‘Teddy’ Akumu, the Rachuonyo-born deep-lying midfielder, has finally signed for Kaizer Chiefs after leaving ZESCO United.

Akumu graced the Kenyan Premier League with champions Gor Mahia, and was part of the team that helped the club bring home the title in 2013 after almost 18 years of waiting.

The towering star was key as K’Ogalo retained the title in 2014 before he left the Kenyan scene to join Sudanese top-flight side Al Khartoum SC, demonstrating that he was ready to test himself at a higher level than the Kenyan game.
