Arnold Origi ready to honour Harambee Stars call-up despite dual citizenship

Arnold Origi claims he will not hesitate to play for Kenya again despite landing acquiring citizenship in Norway.

Origi was Kenya’s goalkeeper for close to four years after he took over the mantle from Francis Onyiso and made his debut against Ghana in an Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) qualifier in 2005, but was thereafter overlooked after it emerged he had secured Norwegian citizenship.

Origi has now stated he will not mind donning the Kenyan jersey again if coach Francis Kimanzi gives him a call-up for the next assignments.
