Kenya Confident They Will Host World Cup Qualifiers at Home

Sports Kenya, the football governing body in Kenya, remains optimistic about Nyayo Stadium’s suitability to host Harambee Stars’ upcoming World Cup qualifiers against Ivory Coast and Burundi in June, despite ongoing venue uncertainties.

With Kasarani Stadium undergoing renovations and Nyayo Stadium yet to receive clearance for high-level CAF matches, concerns have arisen regarding the team’s home fixtures. Reports suggested the possibility of playing matches abroad, with Malawi mentioned as a potential host country.

However, Sports Kenya is actively engaged in discussions with the government and CAF to address the deficiencies highlighted during previous stadium inspections. Efforts are focused on ensuring that Nyayo Stadium meets the required standards, including adequate floodlights, pitch conditions, and camera positions.

Renovation work is underway at Nyayo Stadium to address these concerns, with another inspection scheduled to determine the venue’s suitability. The outcome of this inspection will also impact future competitions, such as the 2025 AFCON qualifiers.

Kenya has faced similar challenges in the past, as demonstrated by Kakamega Homeboyz’s near relocation of a CAF Confederation Cup match. Such instances underscore the complexities of securing venues for international fixtures.

For Harambee Stars, playing home matches away would deprive them of crucial home support, emphasized by coach Engin Firat as vital for success in their upcoming qualifiers against Burundi and Ivory Coast. As preparations continue, the team remains hopeful of securing Nyayo Stadium as their home ground for these crucial fixtures.
