With the sponsorship, it\u2019s achievable,\u201d said the former defender.<\/p>\n<p>Nyaberi, however, admitted that the task will be arduous. \u201cNSL is very competitive but we must fight for a top-two finish,\u201d vowed the tactician.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking to the Star on phone, Nyaberi who joined the team mid-last season after leaving Shabana, said he is equal to the task. This is after lifting the team from the relegation zone to finish 11th on the log.<\/p>\n<p>Nyaberi began his pre-season on Monday last week and played their first pre-season match against KPL giants Gor Mahia on Sunday at St Sebastian Park, losing 1-0.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cConsidering that we have only trained for a week, it was a good result. It helped me gauge the team\u2019s fitness and areas to improve,\u201d added Nyaberi.<\/p>\n<p>He also confirmed that the club has parted ways with six players following the expiry of their contracts including Joram Ouma, Briton Ngigi, Phillip Simiyu, John Omondi, Josephat Hanginda and Marvin Mutsotso.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe six are not part of our plans next season and I wish them the best,\u201d Nyaberi said.<\/p>\n<p>He added he is looking to sign six players to strengthen the team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome of the players have been training with us but, as a technical bench, we have not made a decision,\u201d he told the Star on phone.<\/p>\n<p>Murang\u2019a Seal, which was formed in 2016, is the only club in Kenya with its own stadium \u2013 St Sebastian Park.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Kenya.
