“But yes, we have a few players we are looking at in the PSL; we want to take them to Tanzania," Said noted.

It has been a wonderful season for Yanga. They have already won the Tanzania Premier League with two league games to spare following a resounding 4-2 win over Dodoma Jiji last Saturday.
They could create history by being the first ever East African side to win the Confederation Cup tournament, which is the equivalent of the UEFA Europa league.
