Yanga: Baraza still our player

Young Africans have rubbished rumours that Mike Baraza would be offloaded to join their bitter rivals Simba.

The club’s information officer, Louis Sendeu said Baraza has a valid contract with Young Africans and decision to axe him would come from coach Kosta Papic and the executive committee.

“All transfer speculations about Baraza aren’t true because no single meeting has been held to discuss the fate of any player,” he said.

He is still our player unless the coach decides otherwise�we respect his contribution for the team,” he said.

However, Sendeu disclosed that the club’s executive committee would meet tomorrow to discuss the registration exercise during this mini-transfer window.

The window opened on Sunday and would end on November 30. However, any club wishing to drop its players should submit their names to the TFF before November 10.

According to reports, the Jangwani Street giants would drop five of their 10 foreign players, including Baraza.

As Young Africans downplay Baraza, a situation, their rival too refuted the rumours.

“Simba haven’t held talks with Baraza and after all, we’ve yet to discuss about transfers because our team does not need new players,” said Simba’s information officer Clifford Ndimbo.
