Harambee Stars: Olunga is deadly but Uganda doesn't fear Kenya – Mubiru

Ugandan head coach Abdallah Mubiru believes striker Michael Olunga will trouble his side when they visit Kenya on the weekend.

The Cranes landed in Kenya on Friday and will train at Utalli Hotel ahead of the East African Derby set for Kasarani Stadium.

And speaking on arrival from Kampala, Mubiru says Olunga, who turns out for Kashiwa Reysol in the top Japanese league, is the player he knows in the Kenyan squad.

“[Olunga] is a good striker, a very good finisher in the team, they [Kenya] have a good team and we respect them but of course we don’t fear them,” Mubiru told Goal when the team arrived at JKIA.
