Ephraim is the man popularly known as Jomo Sono, the coach and also owner of Jomo Cosmos FC which nowadays plays in the second-tier of South African football league. Upon his return to South Africa, he found that his club’s jersey had new furniture: a sponsor’s name. Currently, there is excitement about a sponsorship deal for Kenya’s football clubs with a betting company. Just the other day, when the Kenyan Poverty League had a sponsor, which also sponsored some two clubs, footballers' pain did not go away and at some point, the sponsor wanted to pay them directly. Will the clubs this time reveal the details of the deals to the footballers or will the representative body of footballers be included in the negotiations?
