With the transfer window now firmly shut, Thika United completed the signing of six players acquired from different teams in the second tier. Thika United, who had already promoted three of their Under-20 junior team players—James Kinyanjui, Francis Muturi and Samuel Chege—into the senior team, are seeking to beef up all departments. Those who have joined Thika United are former Talanta duo Caleb Wafula (goalkeeper) and Peter Okoth (winger); striker Edmond Adem (Palos); midfielder Dennis Lewa from Coast Stima; winger Benson Iregi and central defender Sosthenes Khakali Idah from Bidco FC. The talented left-footed attacker joined Thika United from City Stars in June 2016, managing one goal and two assists. Coach James Nandwa confirmed that Tata will miss the start of the new league season.
