KCB Rugby have bolstered their squad with 10 new signings following the conclusion of the mid-season transfer window as the Bankers strengthen their ranks ahead of the business end of the campaign.
Headlining the acquisitions is the return of former Kenya Harlequin skipper Darren Sheldon Kahi, who makes his way back to Thika Road having been at Blak Blad and has been a free agent after being released by Quins in October.
The former Black Blad is expected to add leadership, experience, and physicality to the KCB back row as the club pushes for silverware.
KCB have also dipped into the Kenya Harlequin ranks to secure the services of centre Richel Wangila, who similarly joins the Bankers following his release by Quins. Wangila’s arrival strengthens KCB’s midfield options, offering depth and attacking flair in the backs.
