Admiral’s Technical Director Aref Baghazally feels that the Kenyan Premier League [KPL] should have 20 teams, in order to create more chances for teams in the Division to play in the first tier.

-It is quite unbalanced to have 40 teams compete for only two slots. This is especially so when the second tier has grown to be as competitive as ours has become.

-If we have 20 teams in the KPL, implying that four teams get promoted, then we can have eight teams play in a mini-league, at the end of the regular season, Baghazally told Futaa.com.

Baghazally also confirms that his team is ready for their next match, against Moyas, to be played on Sunday July.

-We shall be fielding the same team we used a week ago, against Bandari, as it impressed and closed the day with no injury.

Admiral are currently ranked eighth in the Eastern Zone of Kenya’s second tier.
