Homeboyz centre Oscar Ayodi is reported to be the most likely replacement for Andrew Amonde as Kenya Sevens captain ahead of the two opening legs of the 2017/2018 World Rugby Sevens Series in Dubai and Cape Town.
Amonde of KCB and Billy Odhiambo are set for a spell on the sidelines after sustaining injuries which will keep them out of action for four months.
Amonde is currently recovering from hernia surgery is out for the next two months and Odhiambo is set to miss the next four months of action.
However, team manager Eric Ogweno has expressed his hopes in the upcoming tournament and believes the team is well prepared for the task.
“The challenge last season mainly was stability which translated to poor conditioning of players and results. I am happy to announce that everything has been sorted out this time around and players are happy,” said Ogweno as quoted by the Daily Nation.
