Zoo Kericho FC has confirmed that their head coach Sammy Okoth has requested to leave the club.
Okoth is quitting the Kericho-based outfit just hours after Vihiga United sacked the entire bench, which included coach Mike Mururi, assistant coach Francis Xavier and Tom Tera.
Reports indicate that Okoth might be headed to Vihiga to try and salvage their season. Vihiga fired the technical bench after falling to Zoo 1-0 at Kericho Green Stadium on Wednesday.
“Notice! Our head coach Sammy Okoth has requested to take a sabbatical leave to attend to personal family matters at home.
