After ten difficult months on the sidelines, defender Eric Ouma is finally back in Harambee Stars colours and ready to guide a youthful Kenyan squad set to face Lesotho in an international friendly in South Africa on Thursday from 4 pm.
Ouma’s return is one of the biggest boosts for head coach Benni McCarthy as Kenya begins preparations for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
The former Gor Mahia defender has not featured for Kenya since suffering a ruptured Achilles tendon during a training session with his Polish club Raków Częstochowa in August 2025.
