Kenya coach Twahir Muhidin has named his final 20 players ahead of the CECAFA Senior Challenge Cup.
Those dropped include Gor Mahia midfielder Ibrahim Kitawi, Hillary Echesa, who turns out for Tanzanian Simba, IFK Mariehamn’s Amos Chona, Ulinzi Stars forward Evans Amuoka and Tuskers captain Jerry Santos.

In goal, Finland-based Willis Ochieng, who has proved himself dependable, is expected to start.
The Kenyan side will also have an experienced attack consisting of Allan Wanga, out of contract with Angola club Petro Atletico and Patrick Oboya (Siad Most FK).
Gor Mahia’s composed midfielder, Peter Opiyo, who came out strongly in the latter stages of the qualifiers against Nigeria, is back from trials in German and will be directing traffic in midfield.
Full squad:
Keepers: Willis Ochieng (IFK Mariehamn, Finland), Wilson Oburu (Sofapaka) & David Okello (Thika United).
Defenders: Edgar Ochieng (Mathare United), Pascal Ochieng (KCB), Julius Owino – Captain & Chris Wekesa (Gor Mahia), Jockins Atudo (Tusker FC), George Owino & John Njoroge (Yanga, Tanzania) & Ibrahim Shikanda (Azam FC, Tanzania).
