Police FC coach reveals area giving him sleepless nights ahead of new season

Kenya Police FC head coach Nicholas Muyoti has identified the team’s lack of goals as the main area of concern ahead of the 2026-2027 season. The Law Enforcers are stepping up preparations for the new campaign, with the team involved in a series of friendly matches as they seek to build match fitness and improve their performance.

Police endured a disappointing 2025-2026 season, failing to win a domestic trophy and consequently missing out on qualification for continental football.

Speaking after their 1-1 draw against 2025 Mozzart Bet Cup winners Nairobi United at Police Sacco Stadium on Saturday, 5 September, Muyoti admitted that converting chances remains a major concern.“So far, so good. We are generally doing quite well as a team, and the cohesion is there.What we are suffering from currently is a lack of goals because we manage to create a lot of chances, but we cannot seem to find the back of the net,” said Muyoti.

In Saturday’s encounter, Brian Chonjo put Nairobi United ahead with a sublime free-kick before former Gor Mahia striker Benson Omala levelled the scores for Police with a header from a corner.

Having identified the problem, Muyoti said his focus will now shift to the training ground as he looks to improve the team’s efficiency in front of goal.“It is an area that I am going to put more emphasis on in training so that we can start scoring as much as possible,” he added.

Muyoti also provided an injury update on his squad, revealing that centre-back Jacques Ndecket is the team’s only absentee.“We have a clean bill of health in the squad, save for our centre-back Ndecket (Jacques), who is undergoing rehabilitation and should be back soon,” he said. With the start date of the new league season yet to be confirmed, Police FC will continue playing friendly matches as they work on their match fitness and sharpen their attacking play.
