    Ronney Kola: This is my season

    Defensive midfielder Ronney Kola believes his time has come, and a good season is in the offing.

    The budding spoiler is the only Nairobi City Stars player that failed to clock a game in the 2021-22 FKF Premier League season due to injury.

    The former Kenya School of Government (KSG) player has since recovered fully after undergoing rehabilitation and is now rearing to go.

    “If there’s anything that I have missed is playing competitive matches. An injury kept me out the whole of last season but I am happy that with continued rehab I am now back on the field,”

    “I want to make full use of pre-season to be at par with the rest of my teammates. I am looking forward to my premier league debut and fighting for a place in the squad in the upcoming season. I feel good about myself now and confident about everything. I believe that this is my season.” added Kola

    Kola joined Simba wa Nairobi in August 2020 on a long-term deal. He spent his first season on loan at second-tier side Nairobi Stima.

    Defensive midfielder Ronney Kola is posting good progress from injuries suffered last season while on loan at Nairobi Stima in the National Super League (NSL).

    According to team physio Brian Otieno Odongo, Kola, who has been on a progressive recovery path, is now on his final journey, with rehabilitation in the final phase.

    “Kola sustained a knee injury sometimes back and so far he’s reporting a big improvement. He’s is still undergoing treatment and rehab and should be back in the field of play in 12 weeks.” said team physio Brian Otieno Odongo

    On his part, Kola, signed from Kenya School of Government (KSG) Ogopa in September 2020 on a long term deal, getting to the field of play is all he prays for;

    “I have been out for some months but the best part is there’s lots of improvement and now it’s down to rehab which is the final stage. I can’t wait to be back to the pitch to competitively kick a ball once again.” said Kola

    Defensive midfielder Ronney Kola Oyaro, 20, is the latest arrival at Nairobi City Stars.

    Kola makes the big leap from lower tier side Kenya School of Government (KSG), a club that made the semis of the Nairobi region Chapa Dimba na Safaricom finals held in February 2020 at Jamhuri High School.

    Kola becomes the third signing at Simba wa Nairobi in the current transfer window after Rowland Makati from Vapor Sports and Timothy Ouma from Laiser Hill Academy.

    The three are the fresh entrants to a band of five developmental players being roped in for the upcoming season.

    “Ronny has very impressive midfield defensive qualities that our scouts noted while he was playing at Chapa Dimba,”

    “He is a good addition to our setup and we are now giving him a platform to further develop his skills at City Stars. We welcome him on board.” said team coordinator Samson Otieno

    Speaking soon after his unveiling, Rooney said;

    “It has been my dream to feature for a big club and it therefore excites me to join City Stars,”

    “First is to thank KSG for nurturing my skills over time and I want to make full use of the chance granted to me by City Stars to up my game to the highest level. I thank them for handing me this rare opportunity.”
