Nairobi City Stars confirms that Head Coach Salim Babu has departed the club following the expiry of his contract, having opted not to renew in order to pursue other interests.
Coach Babu initially joined the club in January 2025 for the second leg of the 2024/25 season as a replacement for Nicholas Muyoti, and subsequently signed a short-term contract for the 2025/26 season, which has now expired.
Simba wa Nairobi expresses its sincere appreciation to Coach Babu for his professionalism, commitment, and contribution during his tenure. We wish him the very best in his future endeavors.
Scottish-trained Eugene Ochola, a UEFA-certified coach and current member of the technical bench, will take charge on an interim basis.
