KCB FC has appointed tactician Patrick Odhiambo as the new head coach on a one-year contract, effective July 15TH, 2024, ahead of the 2023/2024 season.
Patrick, who joins from Kakamega Homeboyz FC, replaces Bernard Mwalala, who has left the Bankers to pursue personal interests.
The appointment follows the Football Kenya Federation (FKF) directive that all FKFPL head coaches must have a CAF A or an equivalent “PRO or A” coaching license to be on the touchline and Patrick holds the CAF A, B, and C licenses, meeting the requirements.
Patrick has established his name in local and regional football, having served as both a Head Coach and Assistant Coach at different clubs, including Prisons FC, Western Stima, Muhoroni Youth, Sony Sugar, Chemilil Sugar, and Tanzania Premier League side Biashara United. Additionally, he served as the assistant coach at Gor Mahia FC.
During his time at Kakamega Homeboyz, he led the team to its first silverware in the 2022/2023 season, when it won the FKF Cup.
KCB FC Patron Azu Ogola said, “We are committed to establishing a strong team that will dominate the local scene and go beyond to regional competitions. With the appointment of Patrick Odhiambo, we are confident that we will achieve greater milestones in the new season.”
The patron also acknowledged Bernard Mwalala for his service, especially for reaching the FKF Cup final during the 2023/24 season.
With the transfer window currently open, KCB will also look to strengthen the squad in key areas as it aspires to build on last season’s successes and improve its competitiveness in the upcoming season.
Founded in 1993, KCB FC has risen to be a formidable football side playing in the top-tier league in Kenya, the FKF-premier league. Better known as the bankers, the team has produced some of the best football talents that this country boasts of.
