The omission of striker Jesse Were from the Harambee Stars squad has elicited mixed reactions from the fans and football stakeholders at large.
The former Tusker striker was conspicuously missing from the 26-man provisional squad named by coach Sebastien Migne ahead of the Africa Cup of Nations finals to be held in Egypt from June.
The French coach named an attacking group which ncludes Paul Were (AFC Leopards-Kenya), Ayub Timbe (Beijing Renhe-China), Michael Olunga (Kashiwa Reysol-Japan), Allan Wanga (Kakamega Homeboyz-Kenya), John Avire (Sofapaka), Masud Juma (Libya) and Ochieng Ovella (IF Vasalund, Sweden).
