They roped in Kibera Black Stars finisher Ronald Reagan alongside former Tusker defence kingpin Samuel Olwande and rookie Frank Liyayi.
While expressing his happiness in the signing of the 27 year old, Mathare coach Francis Kimanzi said that he has been tracking the player for some two years now.
“Reagan is a very promising lad who I have been following for some time and I am very happy that he is now part of this team. He has a natural instinct for goals and I hope that he will be able to do that job for us,” said Kimanzi.
Olwande and Liyayi also joined from Nairobi Regional League (NRL) club Kenafric FC.
“We needed an experienced player at the back and Olwande is a good fit for us because he has been in the league for a very long time. As for Frank he is an exciting prospect and he is part of our long term project,” added the former Harambee Stars coach.
It will be intriguing to check whether the three will walk into Kimanzi’s starting eleven for their upcoming Round 18 KPL match against AFC Leopards this Saturday.
