Jacob Onyango could join Bandari after completing his studies at St. Anthony's Boys Kitale.

FKF Premier League side, Bandari is interested in Kenya U17 trialist Jacob Onyango, Mozzart Sport can exclusively reveal.

Onyango recently sat for his form four examination at St. Anthony's Boys Kitale and he could be Mombasa bound as the Dockers have expressed interest in his services.

St. Anthony's Boys Kitale school games teacher, Peter Mayoyo has revealed that they are in talks with the Andre Cassa Mbungo coached team over the player's possible transfer to Mombasa.

"We are in talks with Bandari over a possible transfer of Jacob Onyango, he has completed his secondary school education and it's time for him to pursue a career in football now. To me, he's one of the best young strikers in the country and if he moves to Bandari he will perform well," Mayoyo told Mozzart Sport.

Onyango shot to prominence during the 2018 Copa Africa U16 Championship in Nakuru where he finished as top scorer with five goals. He was subsequently summoned to the Kenya U17 team but is yet to make his debut for the junior National team. He also won the National U19 title with Solidarity Boys in 2019.

Asked about his potential switch to the Dockers, Onyango was coy stating that his handlers are dealing with any potential transfer.

"I cannot really speak about a transfer right now. My representatives are dealing with that. They will communicate once everything has been done."

Several other FKF Premier League clubs are said to be trailing the lanky forward.
