“The squad is good and the boys are a putting in more energy and effort So far are looking forward to see how they will mix them with the foreign based players.

With the league in action now, we will wait for the boys to play their league games this weekend before releasing the final squad so that we assess if all those in our plans are fine so the squad,” he said.
