Tusker FC fans might not need to scratch their heads much after the departure of Ryan Wesley Ogam, who is headed to Austria. Ogam was the Brewers’ go to man for goals last season, but now, the returning Eric Kapaito has shown them a replacement might just be here.
Kapaito returned to Tusker after a difficult season in Tanzania, and has already shown a glimpse of his old safe with five goals during pre-season training matches. During the team’s camp in Kisumu, the striker has netted two goals in two matches, all in spectacular fashion.
Speaking to Telecomasia.net, Kapaito says the goals have inspired him to do well, coming just a week before the season kicks off.
They have really motivated me to be honest. I needed to work so much during pre-season to give myself momentum and those five goals have just pushed me further. My ambition is to match the number of goals I scored when I was last year and the second point is to improve them. I know my abilities and I know I can do it. As a team, we are ready for the new season and the targets have been set clear from the word go; to win the league. I want to do my best to score and give my contribution to this target.
The forward scored 12 goals in his first season with Tusker in 2022/23, before departing for Tanzania’s Namungo. However, his spell there was difficult and hence returned home.
