Caf Confederation Cup: Shakava and Gor Mahia stars who can hurt Al-Ahly Merowe

Premier League

Gor Mahia

AFC Leopards

After being handed a bye in the&nbsp;preliminary round, Gor Mahia will start their Confederation Cup campaign for the 2021-22 season with a game against Al-Ahly Merowe in Egypt on October 15, but who are their key players?

Who are Gor Mahia's key players?

He returned from Nkana FC and grabbed the captain's armband from Keneth Muguna and that means the leadership of the team while playing Al-Ahly Merowe squarely lies with him.
The centre-back is an experienced star, good in aerial duels and thus should lead the relatively young squad, especially on the continental stage. That should be a motivation for him to perform better.

Harun Shakava

The goalkeeper was mostly fielded last season by K'Ogalo and is expected to play a prominent role again this time around.&nbsp;
With the departure of Boniface Oluoch and Samuel Njau, Mathews is the most established goalkeeper remaining at&nbsp;Gor Mahia, and that raises his profile and makes expectations of him even higher.

Gad Mathews

Onyango is among the experienced players who regularly featured for Gor Mahia in the previous Caf assignments and is set to do so in&nbsp;the new season again.
The creative and speedy former Ulinzi Stars winger has often scored critical goals for the local giants, and the same will be expected come Friday.

Samuel Onyango

He scored a brace against KCB in their Premier League season-opening game in September, and to establish himself as one of the dependables he needs to rise on important occasions, especially in games like the Al-Ahly Merowe one.
Should he start ahead of Jules Ulimwengu, Omalla can easily cause trouble to the opponents&nbsp;due to his ability to position himself, especially in dangerous areas.

Benson Omalla

Wendo has been a deep midfield anchor for Gor Mahia for a number of seasons now and, given his ability to disrupt opponents' strategies, he should be a key player for the record Premier League champions.
His physical presence could frustrate any opponent, while at the same time giving his side an upper hand in the midfield battle.
