Harambee Stars begin training today ahead of their last two FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 African qualifying games.
The national team is set to play against East African counterparts Uganda and Rwanda.
This is despite the fact that Kenya is already out of contention for a spot in the next round of the qualifiers.
Kenya’s failure to win a match in their last four outings dimmed their hopes of proceeding to the next round.
