With 32 of 34 games in the 2022-23 FKF Premier League season down and out, flyer Samuel Kapen is already looking forward to the next one that, according to the league managers, will kick off on Sat 26 August 2023.
Kapen, in his first full premiership season, has taken stock of his own performance and looking back, believes it could have been better.
Even then, the former Kibera Black Stars forward is now looking forward to a much improved 2023-24 season.
“It’s been a good season. We started off poorly but steadily worked our way up and peaked in the second leg,” he said
“Individually, it has been a good season for me even though I never attained my personal targets. I hope next season will be better than this season.” added the former Diguna, Liberty Sport, Posta Rangers, and Kibera Black Stars player.
Kapen has led Simba wa Nairobi’s lines this season and has gone on to score seven goals, provide two assists, and a further eight second assists. He has featured in 27 of 32 games clocking 2,199 minutes.
